We welcome our duties under the Equality Act 2010. The school’s general duties, with
regards to equality are:
● Eliminating discrimination.
● Fostering good relationships.
● Advancing equality of opportunity.
We will not discriminate against, harass or victimise any pupil, prospective pupil, or other
member of the school community because of their:
● Sex.
● Age.
● Race
● Disability.
● Religion or belief.
● Sexual orientation.
● Gender reassignment.
● Pregnancy or maternity.
● Marriage and civil partnership.
We aim to promote pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development, with special
emphasis on promoting equality and diversity, and eradicating prejudicial incidents for pupils
and staff. Our school is committed to not only eliminating discrimination, but also increasing
understanding and appreciation for diversity.
We are passionate about the benefits of a single-sex environment for boys to grow in, and
fully accept the incumbent responsibility to use this unique setting to enhance our boys’
awareness, understanding and appreciation of equality and diversity in society.
We believe that a greater level of success from pupils and staff can be achieved by realising
the uniqueness of individuals. Creating a prejudice-free environment where individuals feel
confident and at ease is a commitment of the school. This environment will be achieved by:
● Being respectful.
● Always treating all members of the school community fairly.
● Developing an understanding of diversity and the benefits it can have.
● Adopting an inclusive attitude.
● Adopting an inclusive curriculum that is accessible to all.
● Managing our environment and resources to ensure equal access to all.
● Encouraging compassion and open-mindedness.
We are committed to having a balanced and fair curriculum. We believe that our pupils
should be exposed to ideas and concepts that may challenge their understanding, to help
ensure that pupils learn to become more accepting and inclusive of others. Challenging and
controversial concepts will be delivered in a way that prevents discrimination, promotes
inclusive attitudes and reduces the risk of radicalisation.
We will also respect the right of parents to withdraw their children from certain classes which
pose conflicts to their own beliefs, as long as they are not statutory elements of the
curriculum.
We do not tolerate any form of prejudice-related incident. Whether direct or indirect, we treat
discrimination against all members of our school with the utmost severity. When an incident
is reported, through our thorough reporting procedure, our school is devoted to ensuring
appropriate action is taken and a resolution is put into place which is both fair and firm.
Our pupils are taught to be:
● Understanding of others.
● Celebratory of cultural diversity.
● Eager to reach their full potential.
● Inclusive.
● Aware of what constitutes discriminatory behaviour.
The school’s employees will not:
● Discriminate against any member of the school community.
● Treat other members of the school community unfairly.
The school’s employees will:
● Promote diversity and equality.
● Encourage and adopt an inclusive attitude.
● Lead by example.
We do not discriminate against staff with regards to their:
● Age.
● Disability.
● Gender reassignment.
● Marital or civil partner status.
● Pregnancy or maternity.
● Race
● Religion or belief.
● Sex.
● Sexual orientation.
Equality of opportunity and non-discrimination extends to the treatment of all members of the
school community. All staff members and trustees are obliged to act in accordance with the
school’s various policies relating to equality.
Prejudice is not tolerated and we are continuously working towards a more accepting
and respectful environment for our school community.
