Schools are required under the Equality Act 2010 to have an accessibility plan. The purpose of the plan is to:
- Increase the extent to which disabled pupils can participate in the curriculum
- Improve the physical environment of the school to enable disabled pupils to take better advantage of education, benefits, facilities and services provided
- Improve the availability of accessible information to disabled pupils
Our school aims to treat all its pupils fairly and with respect. This involves providing access and opportunities for all pupils without discrimination of any kind.
At Greenheart Learning Partnership and Woodhouse Primary Academy we are committed to establishing equality for all pupils, their families, staff and members of our school communities.
We want our children to foster positive attitudes and relationships and share a sense if cohesion and belonging; and to be connected with and contribute to their world through a developing understanding of reciprocal rights and responsibilities.
Greenheart Learning Partnership stand against all forms of discrimination on the grounds of age, disability, gender reassignment, ethnic origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender, disability or ability. All members of our community are of equal value and we seek to recognise and respect difference whilst removing inequalities and barriers that may already exist.
The Equality Objectives should be read in conjunction with the Accessibility Policy and the Equality and Diversity Policy
1. Eliminated discrimination
2. Advance equality of opportunity
3. Foster good relationships
