Stonewall Academies Champions membership

The request was successful.

JOANNE RICHARDSON

Dear Ormiston Academies Trust,

Could you tell me the annual cost to Ormiston Academis Trust of being Stonewall Academics Champions?

In light of the recent news that Stonewall is providing information that is 'misleading and potentially illegal advice' I hope that Ormiston Acadeies Trust will review it's relationship with Stonewall.

Dear Ms Richardson

Membership to Stonewall is not operated on a Trust wide basis and is
instead led by our academies on an individual school basis. Teaching our
children and young people about the importance of equality, diversity,
inclusivity and tolerance is one of our key priorities as a responsible
education provide. As a result, across the Trust all of our academies use
numerous different resources and teaching materials in order to ensure
teaching of such topics is broad and varied.

Kind regards

Rebecca Okey
