Commitment to equality of opportunity
Teaching in Birmingham
Birmingham City Council ...- has a strong commitment to equality of opportunity at all levels throughout the service;
- takes positive action to increase members from groups currently under represented in the teaching profession. To strengthen our multi-cultural, anti-racist and Equal Opportunity perspective we have three major aims:
- to be aware of and to counter racism and discriminatory practices;
- to be aware of and to provide for the particular needs of pupils with regard to their ethnic, cultural, historical, linguistic and religious backgrounds;
- to prepare all pupils for life in our multi-cultural society and build on strengths of cultural diversity.
- to be aware of and to counter racism and discriminatory practices;
