Our Policies and procedures ensure that there is an equality of opportunity for all children at Locks Heath Infant School. Our Policy, reflecting the Equality Act of 2010, ensures that all children are treated equally and that they are given the support and encouragement to succeed both academically and socially. The Act sets out Protected Characteristics – sex, race, disability, religion or belief, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, pregnancy or maternity. At Locks Heath Infant School all children, parent/carers and staff will be treated with respect and in an inclusive manner. We endeavour to communicate honestly and openly with our community so that barriers to learning can be removed.
