Aston Clinton School Equality Objectives 2026–2029

In keeping with our vision, Aspire, Care and Succeed, we are committed to ensuring that every member of our school community is valued, included and able to participate fully in school life. Our equality objectives reflect the needs of our school community and are closely aligned with our School Development Plan.

Objective 1: Achievement and attendance
Reduce inequalities in attendance and educational outcomes for pupils who experience disadvantage or barriers to learning, particularly pupils with SEND and disadvantaged pupils.

Objective 2: Access, participation and belonging
Ensure pupils from different groups experience equitable access to the curriculum, enrichment, leadership and wider school life and develop a strong sense of belonging, safety and inclusion.

Objective 3: Equality, diversity and respectful citizenship
Develop pupils' understanding of equality, diversity, fairness and respectful citizenship so that they value difference, recognise and challenge prejudice and contribute positively to their school and wider community.

Progress towards these objectives will be monitored throughout each academic year, reported to governors and reviewed annually.
