Lancashire Equality Mark

We have made huge strides in our journey to attain the Lancashire Equality Mark which is awarded to schools who have taken measures to embed Equality throughout their practice with the goal of enabling all pupils to thrive in a supportive learning community. It has been developed by a working group in Lancashire and provides a clear framework to guide schools through the process of auditing, developing and consolidating good practice in different areas of Equality. It builds on and extends the good practice of the Lancashire Race Equality Mark. We are currently working on achieving the Socio-economic and Sex Equality badges.

The Equality Mark comprises now comprises of six individual Equality Badges:

Race Equality Badge

Sex Equality Badge

Disability Equality Badge

Socio-economic Equality Badge

Sexual Orientation and Gender Re-assignment Equality Badge

Religion and Belief Equality Badge

At the end of the summer term, as well as gaining the Artsmark, we also achieved the Socio Economic and Sex Equality badges, taking use a step closer to the Lancashire Equality Mark.

We have recently had a Gypsy, Roma, Traveller day at School. This has given all of our children an opportunity to experience a different culture, as well as our GRT children the opportunity to share their experiences. We focused on Gabi Jimenez who is an artist within the GRT culture. Have a look at some of the work from year 2.
