Woodlesford Primary School is committed to ensuring equality of provision throughout our school community. As part of this commitment we are currently identifying objectives to work on within the next 4 years.
We are required to demonstrate how we meet the aims of the general public sector equality duty; Equality is a thread that is interwoven through all that we do at Woodlesford Primary School and can be evidenced across our curriculum, our approach to cultural awareness and inclusion, as well as in staff recruitment.
