Equality & Diversity at New City College

Overarching strategic statement:

All learners and staff at New City College have the right to equity of opportunity and parity of esteem.

New City College is committed to equality of access to education and success for all learners. This is managed on an individual learner level and no assumptions are made based on protected characteristics or other factors. Data regarding learner gender, ethnicity, disability and other key factors is monitored to ensure that New City College does not disadvantage any particular demographic and that initiatives are measured by impact. Emphasis is given to broader national trends so that the work of the college reflects the world outside and learners and staff are empowered to be resilient and proactive in the promotion of their right to equality.

Essentially, the College seeks to identify opportunities to celebrate diversity with all stakeholders. College activity reflects a diverse demographic and supports a culture of tolerance and the celebration of individual and collective identity within the College community.
