Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

Howe Green House School is committed to promoting equality and inclusion to ensure that every individual feels valued and respected. We work hard to create an environment where everyone feels involved, safe, happy, and where diversity is celebrated.

Equality: Every individual in our community is valued equally and treated fairly. This principle guides our employment practices, policies and teaching methods, ensuring that all members of the community have equal opportunities.

Diversity: We celebrate the unique backgrounds and identities of our staff, pupils, and extended community. We recognise that diversity strengthens our community and we embrace the richness of social, cultural, religious, and ethnic differences.

Inclusion: Everyone should feel listened to, heard, and able to contribute meaningfully to our school community. Creating a safe environment where individuals have the freedom to express themselves without inhibition is a priority, fostering a sense of belonging for all.

Community Engagement: We are committed to promoting and celebrating EDI beyond the classroom into the wider school curriculum. We actively work to identify and overcome unconscious biases, remove obstacles, and create access so that everyone feels valued, respected, and included.

These principles help us to cultivate a culture of consideration and kindness where diversity is celebrated, equity is prioritised, and everyone has the opportunity to reach their full potential.
