Public Sector Equality Objectives

Public Sector Equality Objectives – London Borough of Hackney 2022 to 2026

The school adopts and is committed to meeting Hackney’s equality objectives.

These are to:

1. Increase prosperity for all and tackle poverty and socio-economic disadvantage
2. Tackle disadvantage and discrimination that is linked to a protected characteristic
3. Build a cohesive and inclusive borough

Underpinning this work will be a renewed emphasis in embedding prevention into service delivery and a commitment to build a culture of inclusive leadership.

There are therefore two underpinning objectives:

• enabling objective 1: embed prevention into service delivery
• enabling objective 2: promoting a culture of inclusive leadership
