Inclusive Schools

With all the changes brought by the Equality Act 2010, understanding and fulfilling your duties can seem daunting at best. What's different? Who needs to do what? How to be sure you're meeting all the requirements? Most importantly - how to create the best environment for pupils and staff to grow and thrive while making the most of what you've got?

Inclusive Employers, the organisation leading the inclusion agenda - going beyond the push for equality (treating everyone the same) and the call for diversity (making sure you have a mix of people) to creating an environment in which everyone feels valued and can add value - is working with schools across the UK to provide the support you need to not only be compliant, but also to develop the best environment for your school community. 

Our comprehensive Inclusive Schools offering goes beyond basic guidance on legal changes to provide you with resources, knowledge, training and support to help you make the difference to your institution.

Schools annual membership of Inclusive Employers costs just £300 and includes everything below, plus full access to the wealth of employer member information and resources on our website, which covers everything from exploring the different 'strands' of diversity to inclusive employment policies and more.

Equality Duty Workbook

No need to get lost in legislation when Inclusive Employers makes fulfilling your duties under the Equality Act a straight shot. We've developed a comprehensive, yet concise workbook that clearly lays out the changes, what you need to do and gives step-by-step suggestions of how to gauge where your school is on the journey and how you're going to reach your destination. With straight-forward frameworks ready to complete and publish, the Duty won't seem quite so daunting. It even has a bank of inclusive phrases to use throughout your school policies to make sure you're up to date and on-message.

What are my responsibilities? 

When it comes to fulfilling the Duty, it can get quite confusing as to who needs to do what. That's why we've created a handy suite of leaflets for your school to quickly and easily share information about the responsibilities of different roles under the Act with everyone involved. From the Head teacher to staff, governors to service providers, Inclusive Employers has you covered.

 

 

  

A more representative board of governors

Does your board of governors reflect the diversity of your pupil population? As a school Governor herself, our Director knows it can be challenging to get underrepresented groups of parents formally engaged with the school. We've compiled Rachel Krys's best advice for developing cohesion and involvement at the board level. She'll also be blogging about her experiences on our site.
