Equality Objectives

St Mary’s and St John’s CE School recognises that direct and indirect discrimination may occur and therefore understands the need for a positive and effective Equality and Diversity Policy.

• We will promote the concept of equality of opportunity throughout the organisation for both young people and adults.
• We will actively develop a better understanding of a range of human beliefs and values, equipping students with the knowledge and skills to participate successfully and considerately in society.
• We will promote good relations between members of different racial, cultural, faith and religious groups.
• We will remove barriers and disadvantages which people may face in relation to disability, ethnicity, gender, beliefs, faith and sexual orientation.
• All students and staff will be enabled to fulfil their personal potential and achieve the best possible standards in their study and learning.
