C&G Preparing to teach in the long life sector Level 4

Equal Opportunities Code of Practice
At Brockenhurst College we believe in treating people equally and with respect. This means treating people as individuals.
All members of the College community are asked to actively support our Equal Opportunities Policy.
‘Equality' includes:
• Giving opportunities to all
• Providing access to education, training, services and facilities
• Taking positive action to address imbalances or under-representation
‘Respect' includes:

• Refraining from using language or behaviour that might cause offence
• Valuing each individual and their unique circumstances
‘Individuality' includes:
• Accepting that each person has their own set of personal circumstances, backgrounds and cultures
• Ensuring that individuals do not experience discrimination or harassment as a result of these.
I feel a code of practice like this is for the benefit of all. I also feel as a teacher that there is a code of conduct that most teachers adhere, to that is passed on from teacher to teacher that I had not seen...
