This is one of the best infographics for explaining what we mean by equity. At PL we are working hard to ensure equity for our young people and our newly appointed PT Equity, Ms Vines, is doing a fantastic job - we look forward to sharing her work soon. #equity #proudtobePL

As part of #DisabilityHistoryMonth our S6 Equalities team have made a Sunflower display at the front door. So far over 80 pupils have left a yellow thumb print in recognition/celebration of themselves or someone they know with a visible or hidden disability. 🌻
