I will actively promote equality of opportunity and anti-discriminatory practices for all children, ensuring that all children are treated with equal concern and respect.
I recognise and adhere to all relevant legislation, including The Equality Act 2010, which prevents discrimination against different groups of people.
I value and respect the different racial origins, religions, cultures, and languages in a multi-ethnic society so that each child is valued as an individual without racial or gender stereotyping. I will not discriminate against children on the grounds of disability, sexual orientation, age, class, family status, gender reassignment, or HIV/AIDS status.
I provide equal chances for each child to learn and develop to their full potential, taking into account each child’s age and stage of development, gender, ethnicity, home language, and ability.
I ensure all children have access to a range of books, puzzles, and other toys which provide positive images and examples of the diversity of life in our society.
I challenge racist and discriminatory remarks, attitudes, and behaviour from the children in my care and other adults.
I help children feel good about themselves and others by celebrating the differences that make us all unique. In my setting, I also educate children not to discriminate against others.
