The Rainbow Flag Award

As part of our commitment to being an inclusive and supportive school to all members of the LGBT+ community all three sites of Rowan Schools have been working towards achieving the Rainbow Flag Award. 

To achieve this award, we have worked closely with YPAS and provided evidence that we have an inclusive curriculum, supportive parents and governors, skilled staff, effective policies, we provide good pastoral support and we allow our children to be included in all we are doing. We were successful in this endeavour in June 2023. 

This is embedded throughout our curriculum and all pupils are encouraged to engage in activities that raise awareness and understanding on a level that is suitable for the individual child.  To maintain this award we work bi-annually with YPAS and The Proud Trust to ensure our curriculum remains inclusive for everyone.

Alongside our inclusive curriculum we also enjoy special events, marches and awareness days throughout the year.
