Accessibility Plan

Accessibility Plan 2023 – 2026

It is a requirement under the Equality Act 2010 that schools have an Accessibility Plan. The Equality Act 2010 replaced all existing equality legislation, including the Disability Discrimination Act. This means that “schools cannot unlawfully discriminate against pupils on the grounds of sex, race, disability, religion or belief and sexual orientation”.

According to the Equality Act 2010 a person has a disability if:

(a) He or she has a physical or mental impairment, and

(b) The impairment has a substantial and long-term adverse effect on his or her ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities.

The Full Governing Body is responsible for ensuring the implementation and resourcing of the Plan and for reviewing the Plan.

Stonebow Primary School is committed to providing an accessible environment which values and includes all pupils, staff, parents and visitors regardless of their education, physical, sensory, social, spiritual, emotional and cultural needs. The school will also remove or minimise any potential barriers to learning, allowing all children to achieve and participate fully in school life. Stonebow Primary School will challenge negative attitudes about disability and accessibility and develope a culture of awareness, tolerance and inclusion.

Review of the Plan

The Accessibility Plan will be reviewed every three years, therefore the current plan will be reviewed in 2026.
