Somervale School is delighted to announce that it has been awarded with the EqualiTeach Gold Equalities Award.

The school has been one of many across the country to sign up to EqualiTeach’s Equalities Award, where schools complete a comprehensive audit to showcase how they have embedded equality, diversity and inclusion throughout all aspects of school life.

The Gold Award is an outstanding achievement, demonstrating that the school is a beacon of exceptional equality and diversity practice.

This further demonstrates the excellent school culture that was recognised during the OFSTED Inspection in June 2022.

Joanna Postlethwaite, Headteacher, said “I am thrilled that the excellent work that students and staff undertake every day to challenge stereotypes and promote inclusion has been nationally recognised. Somervale School is a truly inspiration school and our staff and students demonstrate our commitment to promoting equality, diversity and inclusion. Being awarded the Gold Award is a fantastic achievement and one we are quite rightly extremely proud of”.
