Equality
Equality of opportunity is a fundamental right for all members of the Tredington Primary School community. We are committed to developing the potential of all people associated with the school.
The Equality Act came into force on 1 October 2010. The Act requires schools to demonstrate that they are taking action on equality in policymaking, the delivery of services and public sector employment. All GLA Schools prescribe to a central Equality Policy, which can be viewed on the GLA Website by following this link.
Our Equality Policy covers:
- Sex
- Race
- Disability
- Religion or belief
- Sexual orientation
- Gender reassignment
- Pregnancy or maternity
- Marriage and civil partnership
- Age
Age is a protected characteristic within the Equality Act (2010), but not in relation to pupils of any age in a school.
Tredington Primary School ensures that no parent, carer, employee or anyone associated with the school is discriminated against because of their age.
The aim of the policy is to ensure that individual diversity is valued and that rights and beliefs are protected, respected and tolerated. In order to guarantee that this occurs, we must make it an integral part of our thoughts, words and deeds. This policy is intended to have a direct and positive impact on the ethos of the school.
