Equality, Diversity & Inclusion
At St Peter’s Catholic School, we are deeply committed to promoting equality, diversity, and inclusion in every aspect of school life. Our mission, as reflected in the image, is founded on faith, hope, and love, embodying the teachings of the Catholic Church. Central to our ethos is the belief that every person is created in the image of God, and as such, we are called to respect the inherent dignity of all individuals.
Our values of human dignity, participation, care for creation, and love are interwoven into our approach to equality and inclusion. We ensure that all students, regardless of their background, are given the opportunity to participate fully in school life, fostering a hopeful and supportive community. We encourage a truthful and loving environment where diversity is celebrated, and everyone is treated with kindness, respect, and compassion.
Catholic teachings urge us to care for the poor, be attentive to the needs of others, and build a strong family community, all of which are integral to our school’s commitment to inclusion. We actively promote an environment where students are encouraged to care for God’s creation, both in terms of our natural world and the people within it. By doing so, we cultivate a sense of responsibility and intentional love that is inclusive of all, ensuring that every individual feels valued and supported.
At the heart of our school’s mission is the belief that faith is our foundation. This guides our actions as we work towards building a just and inclusive school community that reflects the teachings of Christ and the values of the Gospel.
