We will provide a welcoming and caring environment, which promotes and reflects cultural and social diversity and is equally accessible to all. We are committed to taking positive and proactive steps to ensure that we provide a safe and caring environment, free from discrimination, for everyone in our community.

• We will challenge any offensive behaviour, language or attitudes, with regards to race, ethnicity, nationality, class, religion, culture, gender, language, sexual orientation and disability from any of our staff, children, parents, carers and visitors.
