Each area of the curriculum is planned to incorporate the principles of equality and diversity in order to promote positive attitudes:

• all students have access to the mainstream curriculum

The curriculum builds on students’ starting points and is differentiated appropriately:

• for students with English as an additional language
• for students from minority ethnic groups, where necessary
• for students with special educational needs

The content of the curriculum reflects and values cultural diversity.

The curriculum encourages students to explore bias and to challenge prejudice and stereotypes.

All subjects contribute to the spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of all students.

Extra-curricular activities and special events cater for the interests and capabilities of all students and take account of parental concerns related to religion and culture.

Informal events are designed to include the whole-School community.

Choice of literature and text should reflect the diversity of the School.
