Dear Mr Hughes

Thank you for your request of 11 March 2021. We have now completed the information you requested and can provide our responses below:

1. Any application you made in 2019 or 2020 to be a “Stonewall Diversity Champion” or to be included on Stonewall/Stonewall Cymru’s “Workplace Equality Index,” including any attachments or appendices to those applications. Please redact personal details if necessary.

No application was made by the School.

2. Any feedback you received in 2019 or 2020 from Stonewall/Stonewall Cymru in relation to either application or programme.

No application was made by the School. Two members of staff were invited to attend a training event and following their attendance at this session, Stonewall sent the School communication identifying us as champions.

3. Any other communication you have received from Stonewall/Stonewall Cymru in 2019 or 2020 unless privileged or otherwise exempt from disclosure (but if you claim privilege or exemption in relation to any material, please say in broad terms what the material is and the basis on which you claim to be entitled to withhold it).

Two members of staff were invited to attend a training event and following their attendance at this session, Stonewall sent the School communication identifying us as champions.

4. Full details of any equality impact assessment you carried out connected with any of these applications (including any equality impact assessment carried out prior to an earlier application of the same kind, if no further assessment was done).

No application was made by the School so no impact assessment was carried out.

5. Details of the total amount of money you paid to Stonewall/Stonewall Cymru (i) in 2019; (ii) in 2020, whether or not as payment for goods or services.

No money has been paid to Stonewall for their services.

Internal review requests should be submitted within two months of the date of receipt of this response and should be sent to our data protection officers at [email address].
