Equality and Diversity

At Minerva May School, we value the diverse backgrounds and experiences of our entire community, celebrating the richness that diversity brings. We strive to create an environment where everyone has the opportunity to contribute, participate, and grow. We are dedicated to ensuring that: 

• We treat everyone with fairness, dignity, and respect. 

• Opportunities are available to all. 

• We maintain a safe, supportive, inclusive, and welcoming atmosphere for students, staff, and visitors. 

Our key priorities include: 

• Actively promoting and upholding a positive school ethos that reflects our commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion. 

• Ensuring that all students, staff, and visitors understand and adhere to our equality and diversity values. 

• Creating an accessible physical environment that accommodates the needs of our students, staff, and visitors (see our accessibility plan). 

• Providing a supportive, non-threatening yet challenging learning environment. 

• Ensuring our curriculum, activities, and learning programmes reflect our commitment to equality and diversity. 

• Offering extended services that meet the needs of our students and their families. 

• Ensuring effective and accurate monitoring of equality and diversity in all our reporting, policies, and procedures.
