Equality Objectives
- To enable children to live, play and learn harmoniously, with adults modelling how this can be achieved.
- To help children learn that difference and diversity are valued and welcomed within all of our lives
- To make sure that success is not dependent upon being able bodied, belonging to any particular culture, gender, social class, sexual orientation, family circumstance or majority group
- To make sure every adult member of our school community is able to fulfil their role without hindrance and with every support and assistance.

To achieve these objectives we all support and apply the following guiding Mission Statement to help us make decisions, to evaluate the impact of our work and to inform the way that we act individually and collectively as members of the Christ Church School community:
