Equality and Diversity

We want to be sure that our Ralph Thoresby motto of ‘Ambition and Achievement for All’ is embodied in everything we do as a school. We want all students and staff to thrive regardless of their ethnicity, age, disability, sex, religion or belief, sexual orientation or gender reassignment.

Ralph Thoresby School is committed to ensuring equality of opportunity for all of the young people in our care. We want to encourage good relations between all stakeholders in school and eradicate all discrimination and harassment. We oppose all forms of discrimination, whether because of ethnicity, age, disability, sex, religion or belief, sexual orientation, gender reassignment or any other condition or requirement which places a person at a disadvantage.

‘At Ralph Thoresby, we are proud to be part of a truly diverse and harmonious school community. This is what gives us our unique identity and makes RTS such a positive environment for learning. As Ofsted noted when they last visited the school, ‘This is a school where staff and pupils celebrate diversity and promote values of tolerance, mutual respect and care for others’.’
