Sexual orientation
Intent
To ensure we do not unlawfully discriminate, harass or victimise pupils due to their sexual orientation.
To ensure there is equality of opportunity between people of different sexual orientation.
To ensure good relations are fostered between all members of the school community regardless of sexual orientation.
Implementation
• PSHE – curriculum
• SRE
• Rainbow flag curriculum and award
• We ensure that all gay, lesbian or bi-sexual pupils, or the children of gay, lesbian or bi-sexual parents, are not singled out as different or treated less favourably.
• Use of Brook Traffic Light Tool, if safeguarding issues are raised.
• School Values
Impact
The pupils will experience:
• a sense of self and belonging
• respect for others, non-discrimination
• be challenged on any discrimination shown by them to others
• be able to indicate their needs, wants and views
This impact will be evident in:
• EHCP/IEP reviews
• Pupil voice
• Demonstrating through their learning; experiencing, engaging, awareness and understanding of issues around the protected characteristic of sexual orientation
