St John’s CE Primary School Equality Objectives 2016 – 2018
A. How we chose our equality objectives
Our equality objective-setting process has involved gathering evidence as follows:

Monitoring and analysis of pupil progress in the identified groups (RAISE ONLINE)

gender and gender identity, disability, sexual orientation and age
