Equality and Diversity
Holmleigh Park is committed to equal opportunity and values diversity. We will challenge prejudice and intolerance and seek to eliminate discrimination.
The promotion of equality of opportunity is in the best interests of our staff, students and the wider community, and we will work constantly to ensure Holmleigh Park is an open and accepting community to all.
Our Equalities and Diversity Policy can be downloaded here.
We operate an Equalities and Diversity Steering group, which exists to further the aims above. The chair of the committee is Ms Martin (m.martin@hphigh.co.uk).
Students learn about the importance of equality and diversity through our weekly PSHE lessons. We are in the process of uploading a selection of relevant links and resources to this page.
