Equality Statement
We are committed to high achievement for all children, supporting pupils and families in ensuring the very best of opportunities are available to them.
At Upland we firmly believe that all children have an entitlement to be educated alongside their peers in their local community.
As an inclusive community, we are deeply committed to removing the barriers to learning and participation that can hinder or exclude individual pupils, or groups of pupils. Equality of opportunity is a reality for all our children within school and our dedicated staff team work relentlessly to ensure that all children have the right to a fulfilling learning experience, regardless of their social background, ethnicity, academic ability or health. This includes support to all our parents, through workshops, courses and drop-in meetings, as we understand the vital role our families play in the well-being and development of their children and the importance of working together as a team.
