School Policies

School policies cover every aspect of school life. Below are some of our most important policies for your reference.  All Statutory Policies will now be reviewed annually at the beginning of each academic year and uploaded to this page once they have been ratified by the Governing Board or the Headteacher.

Sussex Road School is fully committed to advancing and embedding equality and diversity for all pupils, parents/carers, staff and visitors and to challenging all forms of discrimination.

• All students are equal regardless of their religious beliefs, sexual orientation, race, gender, and gender identity.
• Differences are respected, recognised, and valued because diversity is a strength.
• Positive relationships and attitudes are fostered throughout the school.
• A shared sense of belonging and inclusion is encouraged in the classroom.
• We actively observe and promote equality practice for our staff.
• We have the highest expectations for all our students.
• We work hard to raise standards for all our students, especially those most vulnerable.
• We challenge stereotyping and prejudice.

These commitments are embedded in all Sussex Road School policies and our admissions arrangements.

This page is in the process of being updated whilst we upload our renewed 2025–2026 policies.  Should you require a policy, please ask at the School Office.
