St Helens College and Knowsley Community College are proud to have been accredited with the Investors in Diversity Bronze Award by the National Centre for Diversity, recognising excellence in equality and diversity.
The bronze award is the first of the three stages in the Investors in Diversity accreditation, which recognises an organisations commitment to build an inclusive culture by following the FREDIE values of Fairness, Respect, Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Engagement.
These principles closely align with the Colleges own values and provides a framework to continue to integrate these standards into practices and behaviours throughout all aspects of the organisation, encompassing staff, students, and stakeholders.
The College has received the accreditation following an assessment based on various criteria, including survey responses from colleagues, policy review and an assessment of initiatives.
