EDI and Pupil Charter

Norwich School is committed to advancing Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) throughout our community.

Our core values of love, compassion, and inclusion are integral to our daily practices. We aim for every pupil to feel heard and valued, encouraging them to explore diverse perspectives and to celebrate difference. We believe that EDI is an ongoing journey, not a one-time event, and we strive for continuous improvement.

To enhance our efforts, we collaborate with organisations including the African Caribbean Education Network, TeachUs Consent, and the Norfolk LGBT+ Project.

• Our commitment to EDI is reflected in staff training, academic curriculum and co-curricular opportunities.
• Through their experiences at Norwich School pupils will engage with a range of different perspectives, respectfully and with open minds.
