Public sector equality duty
The Equality Act 2010: advice for schools outlines how schools can demonstrate compliance with the public sector equality duty – for example, including details of how your school is:
- eliminating unlawful discrimination, harassment and victimisation and other conduct prohibited under the Equality Act 2010
- advancing equality of opportunity – between people who share a protected characteristic and people who do not
- fostering good relations between people who share a protected characteristic and those who do not
- consulting and involving those affected by inequality, in the decisions your school takes to promote equality and eliminate discrimination - affected people could include parents, pupils, staff and members of the local community
