St John Rigby College is an inclusive college and therefore we aim to remove all barriers that may prevent members of our community from flourishing and reaching their full potential.  To ensure that this culture is maintained:

• We are committed to challenging any form of discrimination be it virtual or face to face for individuals who share any of the protected characteristics of race, age, sexual orientation, pregnancy and maternity, marriage of civil partnership, sex, disability, gender re-assignment, religion, or belief as well as those individuals who do not. 
• We have a zero tolerance to any form of bullying including sexual harassment, and sexual violence, as we want St John Rigby College to be a safe space for all.
• Through our student body we celebrate and embrace diversity through student led groups such as SJR Pride and our Neurodiversity group, as well as through College Culture Days and our annual Equality and Diversity week. 
• The College is proud to have the Disability √√ Award.
• We actively promote the College bursary throughout the academic year to avoid our young people being financially disadvantaged.
• We are determined to help all our students develop the softer skills that universities and employers are looking for, regardless of any barriers they may face. Career Academies and our SJR Extra programme make significant contributions to this aim.
• We have a 4 Year Equality and Diversity Action Plan that we review annually to ensure that we are meeting our statutory duties and College strategic objectives.
