Equality & Diversity

Our College is a community built on mutual understanding and respect and we believe we can provide a caring and supportive environment in which everyone is valued and helped to fulfil their potential regardless of gender, ethnic origin, disability, class, age, sexuality, sexual orientation or belief.  Every member of the College is responsible for meeting our commitment to Equality and Diversity and we will always try to anticipate the needs of all who work at, study at or visit the College and will take any and all necessary actions to prevent discrimination or harassment. We are proud of our diversity and will seek to celebrate wherever we can the differences which are such a vital part of who we are. The poster below, designed by student Shipa Begum, demonstrates these values.

SINGLE EQUALITY SCHEME & ACTION PLAN

The College’s Single Equality Scheme brings together all of the College’s policies on disability, race, gender, sexual orientation, age and religious belief. Every member of the College Community has responsibility for Equality and Diversity and for ensuring that all we do not only complies with legislation, but also promotes essential fairness of treatment.
