Equality and Inclusion

Equality at Thringstone Primary School

At Thringstone, we are proud to be an inclusive school where every child and every family matters. We want all members of our school community to feel valued, respected and able to thrive.

We follow the Public Sector Equality Duty, which is part of the Equality Act 2010. This means we work to:

  • Eliminate discrimination, harassment and unfair treatment

  • Advance equality of opportunity between those who share protected characteristics and those who do not

  • Foster good relationships between all people

We believe the Equality Act gives a clear framework to help us celebrate diversity, challenge inequality and keep improving outcomes for all children.

Our Approach

Our approach to equality is guided by six core principles:

  1. Every learner is of equal value

  2. We recognise and respect difference

  3. We promote positive relationships and a sense of belonging

  4. We follow fair and inclusive practices for staff recruitment and development

  5. We aim to reduce and remove existing barriers or inequalities

  6. We have high expectations for all children

Our Equality Objectives

We have set the following objectives to help drive our commitment to equity and inclusion:

  • Track and respond to achievement patterns across race, gender and disability to ensure support is in place wherever needed

  • Raise attainment in core subjects for our most vulnerable learners

  • Review engagement across school life to make sure all pupils and parents feel included and involved

We keep these objectives under regular review to make sure they stay relevant and meaningful.
