‘Celebrating the Beauty of Diversity’

At Evergreen School we celebrate diversity in all its beautiful forms and believe that every pupil and member of staff brings unique strengths, experiences, and perspectives to our school community.

We are proud to be an inclusive school where everyone is valued and respected, regardless of diagnosis, background, ethnicity, culture, language, gender identity, faith, sexuality or family structure. We recognise and celebrate the differences that make each of us who we are, supporting our staff and students to navigate the paths and journeys some of these differences take them on.

Our curriculum and everyday practices are designed to reflect the rich diversity of our pupils and staff. We work hard to create a culture of belonging, where all pupils feel safe, seen, and supported to reach their full potential.

Through assemblies, special events, classroom activities, and community links, we actively promote empathy, understanding, and respect for all. We encourage our pupils to take pride in themselves and others, learning that difference is something to be embraced and celebrated. Our Diversity Champions help organise our annual Everproud Celebration where staff and pupils join together to celebrate who we are and come together as a school community to celebrate our uniqueness .

Our Diversity Champions

Our Diversity Champions for 2024-25 are Dexter and Katie.

Hello, my name is Katie. I am a sixth form student at Evergreen School.

I am a diversity champion and diversity is important to me because I believe that everyone is equal no matter their race, gender or sexuality.

Diversity starts with acceptance, empathy, respect and much more. I believe that diversity is important and I’m happy to say that my school does well on this particular subject. Our school gives out a very warm welcome for all and we are all proud to say “let’s celebrate the beauty of diversity! You are all loved and accepted!”

And that is why I want to talk about diversity. Let’s silence the inner critic and embrace the unique masterpiece that you are! – Katie, Diversity Champion

Hello, my name is Dexter and I am a year 10 student from Evergreen School.

Diversity is important to me to remind people that they are equal in this world despite their differences.

Diversity I feel is about acceptance, respect and maturity even if you feel you don’t relate to that particular subject

I’m proud to say that our school, and to extent our country, does very well in letting everyone embrace and accept our differences.

And that is why I feel diversity is so important.
