Committed to equality of opportunity and fair treatment for all.
Policies, schemes and action plans
Our commitment to equality and diversity are detailed in our Equality and Diversity Policy and reflected throughout our Corporate Plan.
In order to fulfil the legal requirements of the Equality Act (2010) and in accordance with our strategies to develop equality at the university, we have developed a series of Equality Objectives for the next four years, which have been informed by our data, sector research and consultation with staff, students and other key stakeholders.
Our five Equality Objectives state:
- • We will promote the values and key messages of equality and diversity
• We will nurture and develop the diverse talents of our staff and student community
• We will base our equality strategies on robust evidence
• We will use local and national research to develop our equalities good practice
• We will embed equality and diversity at the heart of our institutional strategy
More detail about the individual actions we will take to achieve these objectives is given within the Equality Objectives document below. Progress on our objectives will be published annually as part of our equality reporting progresses.
