The Polygon School is celebrating School Diversity Week 24th-28th June.
As part of our efforts to ensure our school environment is a place where every pupil can realise their potential, we will be joining tens of thousands of pupils and teachers taking part in School Diversity Week across the country to celebrate equality in our school.
Our school council decided five years ago the way in which they would like to celebrate this is a non-school uniform day where pupils can dress in a way which reflects their identity and respect each other’s choices. This has become an annual event for the school that everyone looks forward to. This year non-school uniform day will be on Tuesday 25th June. This is optional for pupils and there is NO charge as this is a celebration of the diversity in our school not for a charity.
We hope you will support the school in celebrating Schools Diversity Week and the education of equality, diversity and inclusion for all in our school.
Alongside our anti-bullying and safeguarding policies, taking part in School Diversity Week is an important way of actively supporting acceptance of everyone in our school community no matter their age, background, race, religion, sexual orientation, gender or ability. We are excited to see our school community come together again and demonstrate our commitment to an inclusive school environment where every young person can be themselves and thrive. It is a chance to explain to all our students the importance of diversity in the world we are preparing them for.
Please do not hesitate to contact Mrs Foster who along with pupils will be leading our preparations if you have any questions. We look forward to sharing our celebrations for you all to see on the school blog.
