Diversity, Equality and Inclusion

Diversity, Equality and Inclusion Statement

Manor Leas Junior Academy endeavours to improve the lives of children, young people and families. We celebrate our diversity and take steps to prevent and tackle all kinds of bullying. In doing so, we believe that children will achieve more at school and our community will be happier and more successful.

 

We celebrate all our children and their families without discrimination.

Equality Objectives:

At Manor Leas Junior Academy, we are committed to ensuring equality of education and opportunity for all pupils, staff, parents and carers, irrespective of race, gender, disability, belief, religion or socio-economic background.

In order to further support pupils, raise standards and ensure inclusive teaching, we have set the following objectives:-

 

Objective 1: To ensure all members of the school community are given a sense of belonging

Objective 2: To monitor and analyse pupil achievement by group and act on any trends or patterns in the data that require additional support for pupils.

Objective 3: To raise levels of attainment in core subjects for vulnerable learners.

Objective 4: To review levels of parental and pupil engagement in learning and school life, across all activities to ensure equity and fairness in access and engagement.

 

The Equality Act 2010 brought together all the legal requirements on equality that the private, public and voluntary sectors need to follow. It affects equality law at work and in the delivery of all kinds of services and, in the context of this policy, in all aspects of the provision of education.

 

The Equality Act 2010 requires us to publish information that demonstrates that we have due regard for the need to:

  • Eliminate unlawful  discrimination, harassment, victimisation and any other conduct prohibited by the Equality Act 2010

  • Advance equality of opportunity between people who share a protected characteristic and people who do not share it

  • Foster good relations between people who share a protected characteristic and people who do not share it.

 

Manor Leas Junior Academy is an inclusive school where we focus on the well-being and progress of every child and where all members of our community are of equal worth.

 

We believe that the Equality Act provides a framework to support our commitment to valuing diversity, tackling discrimination, promoting equality and fostering good relationships between people. It also ensures that we continue to tackle issues of disadvantage and underachievement of different groups.

 

Our approach to equality is based on the following key principles:

  • All learners are of equal value

  • We recognise and respect difference

  • We foster positive attitudes and relationships and a shared sense of cohesion and belonging.

  • We observe good equalities practice in staff recruitment, retention and development.

  • We aim to reduce and remove inequalities and barriers that already exist.

  • We have the highest expectations of all our children.
