Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

Red Kite Learning Trust is committed to advancing equality of opportunity and fostering good relations as well as eliminating discrimination, harassment and victimisation. 

We oppose all forms of unlawful or unfair discrimination, whether because of age, ethnicity, disability, gender, religion and belief, and sexual identity or any other condition or requirement which places a person at disadvantage and cannot be justified. The impact of all policies, practices and day-to-day activities are considered to ensure that no member of the community is discriminated against or put at a disadvantage.

Red Kite Alliance Red Award

Rossett School is proudly working towards achieving the Stage 1 commitment certificate for the Red Kite Alliance RED Award.

The assessors were pleased with the breadth of our action plan and we look forward to moving through this award over the next year.  You can find out more about the award here. By using this Award as a framework, we are learning and developing as a community; ensuring that our school community is inclusive of all our students and staff. 

The Award provides: 

  • a framework within which schools can evaluate their current provision in terms of equality, diversity, respect for individuals and community cohesion; 
  • a route map to help schools to build on what they already do well, to plan actions to strengthen their provision and to embed a cohesive, inclusive, respectful ethos across the entire school; 
  • a vehicle for schools to celebrate the richness and diversity of the whole school community, as well as the school’s collective achievements in this area of its provision.

The Red Kite Alliance RED Award also supports schools to meet their statutory duties, including those which fall under The Equality Act 2010.
