Equality

We are committed to the Equality Act 2010 and also to a culture of inclusion, support and awareness throughout the school. Our school Accessibility Plan is compliant with current legislation as outlined in the Equality Act 2010. It outlines how we support pupils, staff and visitors with disabilities in our school. The Accessibility Plan also explains the facilities available to assist access to the school by pupils with disabilities. This includes access to the physical environment, the curriculum, to auxiliary aids and equipment and to written information. The school also has three Equality Objectives that support our commitment to equal opportunity. In relation to the admission of disabled pupils, the school’s Admissions policy takes account of the Equality Act 2010 and the Human Rights Act 1998. The governing body administer the policy with fairness and with impartiality. Equality Impact Evaluations are completed for all policies ratified by the governing body of St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School.
