Leaders in Diversty

Leaders in Diversity Award

As part of our ongoing commitment towards equality, diversity and inclusion, we have recently embarked on a journey with the National Centre for Diversity that will lead us to achieving the Leaders in Diversity Award.

Throughout this process we will be able to engage with staff across all of our teams and enable you to “have your say”, on how we are doing in terms of FREDIE: Fairness, Respect, Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Engagement.

Fairness for all is a reality

Respect for all is the norm

Equality of opportunity for all is embedded

All employees feel included Inclusion is widely understood, where all colleagues are committed to inclusive behaviours and where leaders connect the link between an inclusive culture and business performance. Engaged - where there is a positive emotional attachment between colleagues, their work, managers and leaders – where everyone lives and breathes the values and goals of the organisation. The Leaders in Diversity Award is a nationally recognised award that has been achieved by organisations across all sectors including the education sector. With your support we seek to build on our core values and progress to date by further embedding the FREDIE approach within the ACT culture. We will continue to keep you up to date at each stage of our journey and thank you for your continued support. Should you have any questions please contact Rebecca Cooper, Head of People and Development or Charlotte Dando, Diversity and Inclusion Manager.
