# Equality Objectives

### Equality Statement

#### Creating Learning Without Limits

Our equality objectives are:

1. To promote spiritual, moral, social and cultural development through all appropriate curricular and extra-curricular opportunities.  We aim to meet this objective with particular reference to issues of equality and diversity.
2. To reduce prejudice and increase understanding of equality through direct teaching across the curriculum.
3. To move beyond deterministic notions of fixed ability and to model learning and teaching behaviours that avoid labelling.
4. To promote cultural development and understanding through a rich range of experience, both in and beyond the school.
5. To eradicate prejudice related bullying in relation to the protected characteristics listed in the Equality Act 2010.
6. To tackle prejudice and promote understanding in relation to people with disabilities.
7. To educate against hate.

At Waterside Primary, we are committed to equality of opportunity in line with the Equality Act 2010. We shall endeavour to make a positive contribution to society by demonstrating qualities such as respect, co-operation and valuing differences while celebrating cultural diversity. This commitment applies to our work in the classroom, our pupil support systems, our recruitment and retention of staff and our work in the local and wider community.
