Featherstone All Saints C of E Primary School is positively committed to a policy of equality and aims to ensure that no employee, job applicant, pupil or other member of the school community is treated less favourably on grounds of gender, ethnicity, sexual identity, religion, age, disability or background

  • Race Relations (Amendment) Act 2000;
  • Disability Discrimination (Amendment) Acts 2002 and 2005;
  • Sex Discrimination Act 1975 

 

Here at Featherstone All Saints C of E Academy we:

  • do not discriminate against anyone on any grounds.
  • promote the principles of fairness and justice for all through the education and support we provide in our school.
  • ensure that all pupils have equal access to the full range of educational opportunities provided.
