TEACH Trust is an inclusive Trust where we all champion equality. Everybody who enters our Trust are encouraged to behave in a way which respects the protected characteristics of the Equality Act 2010.

Public bodies, including local-authority-maintained schools, are covered by the public sector equality duty in the Equality Act 2010 and the Equality Act 2010 (Specific Duties) Regulations 2011.

At TEACH Trust, we take our obligation very seriously and ensure that all our pupils can take part as fully as possible in every aspect of school life. We identify any barriers to learning that they may have and then work to overcome these so that each child can fulfil their potential.

We strive to:

• Eliminate unlawful discrimination, harassment, victimisation and any other conduct prohibited by the Equality Act 2010
• Advance equality of opportunity between people who share a protected characteristic and people who do not share it
• Foster good relations between people who share a protected characteristic and people who do not share it.

TEACH Trust is committed to ensuring equality of provision throughout the school community. Our equality objectives are outlined on our Equality Objectives Action Plan 2021-2025.
