Policy on Equal Opportunities

 

Children

This School aims to demonstrate through it’s work that it positively values and respects children of all ethnic origins/racial groups, religions, cultures, linguistic backgrounds and abilities.  Children of both sexes are positively encouraged by staff to participate in all activities. This establishment considers it important to provide a range of experiences and an environment that will instil in the children a positive outlook towards people in our society whom they may see as different from themselves:

• Toys and equipment will be chosen with the differing needs of children in mind
• Displays will show and reflect a positive image towards the world in which we live
• Books will be chosen to meet all the children’s ages and abilities and to reflect the many differing lifestyles there are in our society
• Home corners will be changed regularly to show different cultures, races and the world around us

 

Staff

It is the policy of this School to positively value and respect people regardless of their gender, ethnic origins/racial groups, religions, cultures and linguistic backgrounds.  A member of staff is employed because that person is considered to be the best person for the job.
