Equality Objectives

Nestled in the heart of Ellesmere Port, William Stockton Primary School is a vibrant learning community dedicated to nurturing every child's potential. We take pride in our diverse student body, with a higher than average proportion of pupils receiving pupil premium, which supports those who have been eligible for free school meals within the last six years.

Moreover, a significant number of our wonderful children speak English as an Additional Language, enriching our school environment with differing cultures and perspectives. At William Stockton, we wholeheartedly celebrate this diversity, recognising its importance in preparing our children for life both now and in the future.

We believe in equality of opportunity for all—every child and staff member matters here. Our core principle is to provide each individual with every chance to succeed. We are committed to fostering an inclusive atmosphere where every pupil, employee, governor, and visitor is respected, regardless of ethnicity, religion, attainment, age, disability, gender, sexual orientation, or background which ensures equality of opportunity and freedom from discrimination for all. 

In order to further support pupils, raise standards and ensure inclusive teaching, we have set the following objectives (these objectives will be reviewed every 3 years):-

  • To work collaboratively within and across our schools to further enhance the quality and diversity of each school’s curriculum
  • To narrow any gaps in attainment for pupils with additional needs, disadvantaged or with any protective characteristic 
  • To continue to develop and promote greater understanding and acceptance of the protective characteristics including LGBTQ
  • To ensure that all pupils are encouraged to participate in visits, residentials and after school/extra-curricular activities and provide analysis at school level
  • To analyse attendance data annually, at both school and trust level, to demonstrate how pupils with different characteristics are performing (SEND and ethnicity) – end of July 2024
  • To analyse attainment data annually, at both school and trust level, to demonstrate how pupils with different characteristics are performing – end of July 2024
  • To undertake an analysis of recruitment data and trends regarding race, gender and disability and report to the People committee – end of July 2024
  • To carry out an ethnicity review of personnel working within the Trust workforce including a gender review analysis – end of July 2024
  • All members of staff and LAB/Trustees that are involved in recruitment and selection to attend training on equal opportunities and non-discrimination – end of July 2024
