Our judges would like you to tell them the story of your school’s commitment to DEIJ in 2023-24; share your pride in where you work and explain why your school has a sustainable approach to creating and operating a robust DEIJ policy. Give us some examples of what you are describing and share any data which supports your entry (but please avoid lists!). Most of all, give us a sense of the importance of DEIJ within your school community as it would appear to our judges if they were lucky enough to walk through your doors.
These are the key questions to answer in your entry: please make sure your entry focuses on your DEIJ strategy rather than on the wider life of the school.
