Equalities Statement
At Stapleford Community Primary School, we believe that every child should feel that they belong.
We are proud to be a school where children are known, valued and supported as individuals. Guided by our CARE values of Curiosity, Ambition, Resilience and Excellence, we work hard to ensure that all pupils feel safe, included and able to thrive.
As part of Anglian Learning Trust, we fully support the Trust’s commitment to:
- eliminate discrimination
- advance equality of opportunity
- foster positive relationships
What this means in practice
For us, equality is not just about policy—it is about the experience children have every day in our classrooms and wider school life.
This includes:
- high-quality adaptive teaching so that learning is accessible to all
- calm, structured classroom environments, including the use of visuals and calm spaces
- strong support for pupils with additional needs
- a curriculum that reflects and celebrates difference
- clear expectations around respect, kindness and belonging
We want every child to feel confident, included and successful.
Working in partnership with families
We know how important it is that families feel informed and involved.
We are continuing to develop how we communicate so that information about children’s learning and support is:
- clear
- accessible
- meaningful
We work closely with families, particularly where children have additional needs, to ensure that support is understood and effective.
Our equality priorities
We regularly review how well we are meeting the needs of all pupils through:
- pupil progress and attainment
- participation in wider opportunities
- pupil voice
- parent feedback
Our current priorities are outlined in the document below: SCPS Equality Context and Priorities 2026-2029
