At Northwood School, we seek to provide our students with opportunities to develop their understanding and appreciation of diversity. In a multicultural and ever increasingly diverse society, we recognise the importance of equipping our students with the knowledge and understanding of the different facets of identity.
Our bespoke diversity programme contains six strands:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
| Equality and equity | Racial and ethnic representation in places of work | Religious identity: tolerance and acceptance | Disability and neurodiversity in places of work | Gender identity: rejecting stereotypes and “set” roles | Sexual orientation and identity – moving forward |
Diversity: What we do to help our students best prepare for in adult life…
Over the course of the academic year, our students discuss a range of different diversity topics. Each half-term places a spotlight on a specific facet of diversity.
This programme endeavours to:
- Expose misconceptions surrounding race, ethnicity, disability, neurodiversity and gender
- Empower students to challenge offensive commentary in an articulate and appropriate way
- Equip students with the skills to voice their thoughts, opinions and beliefs with conviction and humility
- Foster an appreciation of our natural world
- Provide all students with a platform to express their identity in a safe and inclusive environment
