Children reflect the attitudes and values of all around them, including racial attitudes and values. While eliminating racial discrimination and promoting equality of opportunity are important in ensuring race equality, they are insufficient in themselves to counter any prevailing racist attitudes and behaviour.
We will take positive action on a regular basis to ensure the young people in our care: ▪ develop positive attitudes and behaviour to all people, whether they are different from or similar to themselves ▪ unlearn any negative attitudes and behaviour that they may have already learnt ▪ value and respect everyone regardless of skin colour, physical features, culture, language or religion equally rather than seeing them as less worthy than theirs or ranking them in a racial hierarchy Curriculum The school’s curriculum and timetable include a substantial amount of PSHCE, aimed at equipping our pupils with the skills, knowledge and ability to be positive members of their communities. Significant aspects of the learning revolve around communities, how people can be different and why it is so important to be tolerant and accepting of others. All pupils are taught about different aspects of the local and global community, but partisan and personal views are not allowed. Recruitment Recruitment is always led by someone who is trained in safer recruitment which includes considerations around equality and diversity. All equality and diversity monitoring are anonymous and separate from our recruitment process. Our recruitment processes are reviewed and annually and at any appropriate time throughout the year. As a school and workplace, we challenge all types of prejudicial and discriminatory behaviour. It is made clear to both staff and pupils that it is not acceptable. There are clear procedures for dealing with these behaviours for pupils and staff in the relevant policies. |
