Rainbow Flag Award

We are thrilled to announce that Ark Charter Academy has achieved a significant milestone in our journey towards inclusivity. We have been awarded the ‘Inclusive Curriculum’ badge as part of the prestigious Rainbow Flag Award. This recognition is a testament to our commitment to fostering an environment that celebrates diversity and ensures everyone feels valued and included.

Our assessor, who has been leading on the award for three years, was particularly impressed with our efforts. They said:

“I have now reviewed your Inclusive Curriculum submission - thank you so much and a huge well done for passing this next section. We are incredibly impressed by the school’s efforts toward being LGBT+ inclusive and I really want to highlight this as some of the best evidence I have personally seen in my three years of leading on the award. Ark Charter is truly making a direct impact on creating a better and more inclusive future for not only LGBT+ people but for everyone.”

These words of praise reflect the hard work and dedication of our entire school community in promoting inclusivity. We are proud of our efforts to ensure that our curriculum is not only inclusive of the LGBT+ community but embraces all individuals, regardless of their identity.

This achievement is not the end of our journey, but rather a stepping stone towards our goal of creating an educational environment where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued. We will continue to strive for excellence in inclusivity, ensuring that Ark Charter Academy remains a beacon of acceptance and understanding.
