Our Commitment to Equality

At Edna G. Olds Academy, we are dedicated to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment where every child, staff member, and family is valued and respected. We believe that equality is fundamental to creating a positive and nurturing school community where everyone can thrive.

Our Values

Inclusion: We celebrate the unique backgrounds, cultures, and experiences of every individual in our school.
Respect: We treat everyone with kindness, dignity, and fairness, ensuring that differences are embraced and respected.
Opportunities for All: We are committed to providing equal opportunities for every child to succeed, regardless of their race, gender, ability, religion, or background.

Our Actions

• We embed equality into our curriculum, teaching children about the importance of diversity, empathy, and mutual respect.
• We actively challenge discrimination and promote a culture of fairness and understanding.
• We regularly review our policies and practices to ensure they uphold the principles of equality and inclusivity.

Working Together

We believe that equality is a shared responsibility, and we value the partnership between school, families, and the wider community. Together, we can help nurture confident, compassionate individuals who contribute positively to the world around them.

Edna G. Olds Academy seeks to ensure that no member of the school community, or any person through their contact with the school, will receive less favourable treatment on the grounds of a protected characteristic. Within Edna G. Olds Academy, these include the following: race, nationality, religion or belief, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, responsibility for children or other dependents, disability, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, age, socio-economic background, living situation, or spent convictions.
