Ebor Academy Trust diversity and inclusion statement:
Our statement was compiled by our Pupil Parliament and Staff Engagement Committee to enable our Trust to have a whole-organisation approach to inclusion.
We are one organisation working as one school, many sites and supporting each other to achieve our very best. We are dedicated to fostering an ethos where diversity and inclusion shape every aspect of the educational and professional journey for the adults and children within the Ebor team. As a family of schools, we recognise our responsibilities in educating our pupils, our staff and the communities we serve in celebrating differences and promoting equity, to ensure that every member of our Trust is valued for who they are. We aim to ensure that people feel a sense of belonging through overcoming challenges and celebrating successes together.
Values:
The Ebor values of Belonging and Respect underpin our approach to inclusion. We aim to build a culture that enables people to be their authentic selves. We aim to create an environment where they can experience psychological safety alongside personal achievement of their career and workplace objectives.
Our Approach:
At Ebor Academy Trust, we believe in building bridges and tunnels to link the silos in our organisation. People feel part of something meaningful and effective in shaping the next generation to become amazing adults. By enabling change in real time and embedding success in a sustainable way, we want our workforce to reflect the diversity of the society in which we operate.
What does this look like:
We welcome staff from across our communities to join us, and we value them for the contributions they make to Ebor Academy Trust. The diverse characteristics that they bring with them will enhance our staff community and ensure that our people can understand and relate to the needs of our children.
