Equal Opportunities Manager : Ms Helen Ford

Whitechapel College is an Equal Opportunity employer. The College will attempt to ensure that discrimination on the basis of race, religion, gender, age, disability, lifestyle and sexual orientation is eliminated.

We will attempt to guarantee that selection, internal promotion, the allocation of work, pay and other benefits are based purely on merit. This principle will apply to both employees and independent contractors.

The College has appointed an Equal Opportunities Manager to oversee and implement the Equal Opportunity Policy and foster cultural awareness sensitivity.

The Equal Opportunity Manager will monitor College activity in order to identify problems of harassment relating to any individual from any group. If the Equal Opportunities Manager becomes aware of such issues it will be their duty to bring them to the attention of the Senior Management of the College. They will then examine the evidence (that must be presented impartially by the Equal Opportunities Manager), and make a determination, which could include a range of options: reconciliation, re-education, disciplinary action or dismissal.

Any student of the College suspected of harassment will be treated in an identical fashion.
