Introduction
This Single Equality Scheme encompasses
equality in all its forms, including
disability, race/ethnicity, gender, sexual
orientation, age, faith/belief and re-
assignment of gender. Whilst being
consistent with previous schemes and
policies, it represents a co-ordinated
approach to Equality and Diversity and a
commitment to an ongoing process of
development.
It is the college’s vision to provide an
environment in which discrimination in all
its forms is deemed to be unacceptable and
to treat everyone equally, irrespective of
their gender, race, ethnicity, belief, age,
mental or physical health, or sexual
orientation. Tackling discrimination and
promoting healthy relationships with people
is wholly consistent with the college’s
desire to be outstanding and with our
mission statement.
Every user and potential user of the college
is involved in the Single Equality Scheme.
Involvement or participation can take many
forms, for example, communication,
consultation, awareness of the needs of
others, assessment of impact, decision
making, taking positive action, review and
so on. There is an expectation of mutual
respect throughout the college, together
with active support of this scheme.
