At Woodford we welcome our duties under the Equality Act 2010 and consider the active promotion of Equality as fundamental to our values and our aims as a learning community.

We want our students to enjoy and appreciate their education and to leave Woodford equipped to embark upon happy, fulfilling and useful lives, wherever and however they choose to lead them.

To that end we seek to help them become:

• Confident of their own worth, courageous and resilient

• Happy and safe in themselves and in relationships

• Self-reliant in life and in learning

• Independent in thought and belief

• Receptive to new experience and interested in everything

• Assured and articulate in communication

• Considerate and kind

• Respectful of difference in other individuals and cultures; champions of equality

• Ready to assume responsibility as members of multiple communities

• Active in stewardship of the environment and of resources

• Clear-sighted and imaginative in planning for their futures

• Unwilling to settle for less than their best in anything they do

We aim to be a community where everyone is treated fairly and with respect and where individuals (adults as well as children) are supported to achieve their full potential and to thrive.  You can read more about our undertakings in this area by accessing the documents linked from this page.
