Bakewell C of E Infant School is proudly inclusive, welcoming children, their families and visitors to school from a diverse range of backgrounds.   We believe as children of God, we are all uniquely talented, and that our differences bring richness, enable curiosity and deepen understanding of each other.  It is this nurturing ethos that enables us all to 'Shine as a light in the world, to the glory of God the Father.'

We aim to be a school family where everyone is treated fairly and with respect. We value all that is brought by each person in school, and recognise that some of us need a little extra support so that we too can flourish and reach our potential. 

We take seriously our duties to eliminate discrimination, promote equality of opportunity and foster good relations between people of all backgrounds. This duty is set out in the Equality Act of 2010, which covers sex, race, disability, religion or belief, sexual orientation, gender reassignment and pregnancy or maternity.
