Key Information and Policies 128

All College policies are available in the Key Information and Policies section, on the website.

Equal Opportunities

The College is fully committed to eliminating unfair discrimination, promoting equality of opportunity and fostering positive relationships among people of all ages, disabilities (physical and mental health), gender, race, religion or belief and sexual orientation. We actively encourage equal opportunity and diversity and we will take action to avoid all forms of intimidation or discrimination.

The College expects all students to show consideration and respect for others, in keeping with fundamental British Values: democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs. These are also values shared by many throughout the world.

The Upholland Foundation

Modest funds are on offer to students at Winstanley College. Application forms for the fund are available on the College website and grants are made to help toward educational trips and visits as well as the equipment that may be needed. If you require any further information, please contact upholland.foundation@winstanley.ac.uk

The Amenities Fund

The Amenities Fund relies on donations from parents and is used to provide additional support for students, fund student events and purchase equipment. Past uses of the fund have included many worthwhile projects that benefit our students, such as books for the library, sports and performance equipment.

“Learners feel safe. They tell us that they know what to do and who to speak to if they have a concern.”
