Equal Opportunities

At Herbert Thompson Primary School, we aim to meet the needs of every pupil irrespective of belief, race, gender, social class or ability. This is important in helping to give every child access to all areas of the curriculum.

The school follows their Strategic Equalities Plan closely. The staff are actively committed towards the following aims:

• To provide equal opportunities in learning and experiences for all pupils.

• To create and maintain a happy working and learning environment that reflects and takes into account the different beliefs, cultures and languages to be found within the school.

• To monitor, review and improve its provision of resources within the school to meet the educational needs of all children.

• To work towards the elimination of inequality of opportunity and prejudice as and when this occurs.

• To ensure that boys and girls have equal access to all benefits, facilities or services offered by the school including extra-curricular activities.
