Equity & Equality – Inclusion, Pupil Premium, Sports Premium, EDI

We believe wholeheartedly that every child deserves a fair chance in life. Unfortunately, for some children, that is not always the case due to disadvantage. Our definition of disadvantage includes those children with visible and invisible SEND needs, those known to Children's Social Care, those in receipt of Pupil Premium, those whose families who are not eligible for FSM but have families facing significant financial hardship, children living in temporary housing, children with a parent in prison, Young Carers, a parent with physical or mental health issues, children with multiple traumas (ACEs), children who share a protected characteristic, children with access to limited internet, books and resources needed for homework.  At St Antony's, we strive to give our children equity so that they have a fair chance. Equality means that every child is given the same resources or opportunity. We consider equity- that each child has different circumstances or needs- and we aim to give each child or their family the resources they need to reach the same outcomes.
