Roman Hill Primary School's Equality Objectives 

It is our intention that Roman Hill is a safe environment that promotes equality. We develop inspiring places to learn, where children are respected, their talents are nurtured, and they are able to thrive. As a school we are committed to promoting the welfare and equality of all its staff, pupils and other members of the school community. To achieve this, the school has established the following objectives:  

• To promote spiritual, moral, social and cultural development through all aspects of life at our schools, both inside and outside the classroom. We aim to meet this objective with particular reference to issues of equality and diversity. 

• To reduce prejudice and increase understanding of equality through direct teaching across the curriculum. 

• To model teaching and learning behaviours that avoid labelling, and promote inclusion of all pupils. 

• To narrow the attainment gap between boys’ and girls’ and disadvantaged pupils, pupils with SEND and other pupils. 

• To promote cultural development and understanding through a rich range of experiences, both in and beyond the school through our curriculum. 

• To eradicate prejudice related bullying in relation to the protected characteristics listed in the Equality Act 2010 with particular focus on homophobic bullying and prejudice. 

• To tackle prejudice and promote understanding in relation to people with disabilities.
