The term Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, goes deeper than ethinic and cultural diversity for us as a school and on EDIC.  We take it to mean all characteristics that makes each of unique. Be it race, gender, sexuality, ability, neurodiversity, learning styles, personal preferences.  Our EDIC members are involved in developing EDIC through projects, accreddiation and personal work in their various areas of expertise. Some of our accreditations include, Athena Swan Bronze and UN-PRME. Projects that we are involved in include, HE Race Equality Charter, Decolonising the Curriculum and various student engagement iniatiatives. 

As a school we are committed to working to continuously find ways to engender inclusivity in everything we do so that no one feels left out. Our EDIC is represented by a community of staff and students who have lived experience or a commitment for improving learning and working conditions in various areas related to EDI. We are guided by the University’s EDI 8 commitments.
