Equality

At Berkswell, we are committed to embedding the principles of the Equality Act 2010 into our school through a key part of our vision, ‘by emphasising the value of unity, we create a sense of togetherness which supports and celebrates individuality, reinforcing a sense of belonging.  Children are actively encouraged to recognise the value of every individual and to embrace diversity. There is a tangible sense of acceptance within our school.’  

To ensure that our learners have the knowledge, empathy and attitudes to flourish in modern Britain, they need an understanding of the diversity that underpins our society and is enshrined in UK law.

We embed an age-appropriate understanding of the concept of diversity and discrimination by developing children’s understanding of the world we live in through our PSHE and R.E. worldview curriculum as well as wider school worships.
