Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

At Crown Lane, we are proud of our richly diverse community and we celebrate the skills, talents, aspirations and achievements of everyone.  This is underpinned by our Crown Lane Values of  Kindness, Ambition, Respect, Responsibility, Inclusivity and Commitment.

We have opportunities across our whole curriculum to promote equality, diversity and inclusion, from the range of texts we read in English to the topics we study in History.

Every year we celebrate Black History Month.  This year, each class is learning a poem by a black poet, which will form part of a school performance.  Furthermore, we are focusing on Black British History pre-Windrush, with each year group looking at a different key figure. 

We are proud to part of the Raising the Game initiative run by Lambeth.  We are committed to the Raising the Game aims of raising academic achievement, improving the educational experience and narrowing the attainment gap for Black Caribbean pupils in Lambeth. As well as the Aim High programme, which shares inspirational talks from successful black professionals, we will also be part of the roll-out of the Anti-Racism framework.  Our Racial Justice Champion is Ruth Grimwood.
