We are committed to safeguarding and ensuring all learners experience a secure, safe and welcoming environment in which they can fulfil their potential. Specific policies and procedures are in place to safeguard young people and vulnerable adults; these are robust and are reviewed regularly. Procedures are in place to take all reasonable measures to ensure risk is minimised and appropriate action is taken to address any welfare concerns.
Newcastle Sixth Form College welcomes diversity in its student population - valuing differences in race, gender, sexual orientation, disability, religion or belief, class and age. We actively oppose discrimination, aim to remove all conditions that put people at a disadvantage, strive to improve access and to provide outstanding support. We are committed to providing an inclusive learning environment. We have produced a Single Equality Scheme which sets out our response to statutory obligations and our approach to the active promotion of equality and diversity. Please discuss your support needs with us and we will make every reasonable effort to make adjustments to help you succeed.
