Section outline

  • Through a school’s focus on equality and diversity, incidences of discrimination and racism will reduce, schools will develop further into places where people genuinely feel that they belong and, as a result, they will develop a strong and positive sense of self.

    Are you passionate about equality and rights? Do you believe in the power of student voices to create positive change? Join our Student Equality and Rights Advocates (EARA) Group and be part of a movement that values every voice and fosters a culture of allyship and networking.

    This will consist of one network meeting and one Equality and Rights Advocates (EARA) meeting per term.

    The focus for the staff network meetings will be ‘diversifying the curriculum and environment’ which will include an opportunity to review new resources, consider planning exemplars and good practice, and will provide an opportunity to share existing practice with colleagues.

    The student EARA meetings will provide an opportunity for the students to take a lead in promoting Rights and Equality through pupil voice and contribute pro-actively to promoting a more inclusive culture in their schools.
