Ensuring Equality and Safety Clause Samples

Ensuring Equality and Safety. 3.1 Equality and Diversity Policy‌ Liverpool ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ University is committed to promoting practices that take into account the rights of individuals to be treated with dignity and respect. It recognises that discrimination, victimisation, bullying and harassment may be experienced in a number of ways, including day-to-day interaction with colleagues, peers and visitors, students/trainee teachers, university and school-based staff as well as pupils in schools and members of the public that trainee teachers may come into contact with. The aim is to promote a positive environment and reduce stress, illness and absenteeism and prevent any individual from being forced to give up work or studies because of perceived issues in this area. In partnership with schools and educational establishments we aim to provide appropriate placements that are a welcoming environment which will promote Equality of Opportunity and Respect for Diversity to meet the needs of our diverse student population. The University does not tolerate any form of discrimination which it recognises as unacceptable, discriminatory and unlawful, and is proactive in ensuring that people are treated fairly. This commitment to promoting equality for all extends to all partnership work, including partnership in Initial Teacher Training. The University is mindful of and seeks to ensure compliance with its statutory obligations, the Equality Act (2012) ITT Requirements (R3.3) and the QAA Code of Practice (e.g. Work-based and Placement Learning, 2017, Page 3).
