Equality Information and Objectives

November 2016 – November 2020

The Public Sector Equality Duty 2011 has three aims under the general duty for Schools:

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

We have considered how well we currently achieve these aims with regard to the protected groups under the Equality Act.  Iver Village Junior School aims to reduce and challenge inequalities. We have therefore agreed on the Equality Objectives below:

Equality Objectives:

• To improve the attendance of all groups of children, especially our GRT pupils.
• To narrow gaps in academic attainment and progress between pupils with and without Special Educational Needs.
• To increase levels of participation for groups of pupils and parents who are underrepresented in particular aspects of school life.

If you have any questions on these please e-mail the school via the office.
