Our Seven Key Principles
All members of the school and wider community are of equal value.
We recognise and respect diversity.
We foster positive attitudes and relationships, and a shared sense of cohesion and belonging.
We will ensure that the recruitment, retention and ongoing development of staff is undertaken in a fair and equitable manner to support our school’s vision and values.
We aim to reduce and remove inequalities and barriers that already exist.
We consult widely.
We feel that the community as a whole should benefit.
