Research demonstrates that prejudice and discrimination impact on a child\u2019s well-being, attendance and attainment. All establishments should have a well-developed Equality and Diversity policy highlighting their commitment to improving the outcomes of children and staff in their care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Devon County Council has collaborated across teams, school leaders and external partners to bring you two exemplars to support your establishment to meet its Equality<\/span> duty. Our aim is to highlight how as an establishment you can commit to delivering learning and support to meet the needs of children, whilst celebrating and encouraging learning on diversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Equality and diversity policy provides a clear template, with guidance to develop a policy that is impactful. The Equality duty review provides you with a template for your equality objective review 4 year cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These exemplars should be edited by your team to ensure they are bespoke to your establishments and demographics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These policies and your review can be supported by our Equality, diversity and inclusion awareness staff training<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
