Equality

We will continue to work closely with partners, including all those schools and other settings within which students are placed, to ensure that no member of our staff or student communities experiences direct or indirect discrimination because of an association with, or perception of, their ‘protected characteristics’: age, disability, gender reassignment, pregnancy or maternity, race, religion or belief (including lack thereof), sex, or sexual orientation.

The Faculty acts upon the need to eliminate discrimination, harassment, victimisation and any other conduct that is prohibited by or under the act, both within university learning and teaching environments and in partner settings.

The Faculty is clear that its third party liability in relation to harassment extends to the valued public sector partners with whom we share the effort to advance equality of opportunity between people with protected characteristics in common and those without. 

With our partners:

• We seek to tackle prejudice and foster good relations between people who share a relevant protected characteristic and those who do not. 
• We have due regard, in particular, to the need to remove or minimise disadvantages suffered by people who share a relevant protected characteristic and which are associated with that characteristic; and we continue to encourage those with relevant protected characteristics to participate in the life of the Faculty and the University, and in all those aspects of public life where participation of such people is disproportionately low.
• We celebrate the ongoing efforts of all those members of our staff and student communities and our partnership community to build good relations and promote understanding.
