Equality and Diversity
Equality and Diversity
Equality is ensuring individuals or groups of individuals are treated fairly and equally and no less favorably, specific to their needs, including areas of race, gender, disability, religion or belief, sexual orientation and age. This is so all learners feel inclusive in the session and everyone is getting the same opportunities to learn and achieve whether they have a disability or not. S
Promoting equality should remove discrimination in all areas. Bullying, harassment or victimization are also considered as equality and diversity issues. This should take place within sessions through challenging any discriminative behavior that may take place. You could do this through class discussion were learners get to air their personal views and then the tutor can educate the class on discriminative behavior and the effects it can have not only on students but on staff also. Another way you could challenge this would be on a 1:1 basis with the individual.
We as tutors are also able to benefit from the promotion of Equality and Diversity. For example I as a Bury College student have had the opportunity to attend these sessions and have learnt from this. I am then able to cascade what I have learnt to my learners at Rathbone and they have then benefited from other agencies knowledge of the subject.
Diversity aims to recognise, respect and value people’s differences to contribute and realise their full potential by promoting an inclusive culture for all staff and learners.

Every person is an individual we are all different in many ways weather it be in race, culture, Race, National origin, Gender, Sexual Orientation, Age, Marital Status, Religion, Ethnicity, Disability, Family structure, Health, Values or beliefs and in teaching and learning we need to accommodate this in our sessions and teaching and make sure we give the same opportunities and learning experience to each individual. It is good to have a mixture of individuals
