At Curridge Primary School, we are committed to ensuring equality of opportunity for all pupils, staff, parents and carers irrespective of race, gender, disability, belief, sexual orientation, age or socio-economic background. We aim to develop a culture of inclusion and diversity in which all those connected to the school feel proud of their identity and ability to participate fully in school life.
We tackle discrimination through the positive promotion of equality, by challenging bullying and stereotypes and by creating an environment which champions respect for all.
At Curridge Primary School, we believe that diversity is a strength which should be respected and celebrated by all those who learn, teach and visit us.
No Outsiders teaches children they belong in school. We say there are “No Outsiders” here because everyone is welcome; we talk about being different and playing together. There is a No Outsiders resource of 42 picture books with a lesson plan for each book. There are 6 lesson plans / picture books for each year group Reception – Year 6. The picture books are probably books you have seen or already have in your home; Elmer the elephant is in there, so are books by Michael Rosen, Nick Sharratt and Sue Heap.
If you would like more information on No Outsiders, please click on this link or email our Well-Being Lead at office@curridge.w-berks.sch.uk to ask how we are implementing it in our School.

Rowan Class learned more about listening to other people’s ideas and experiences. They agreed that everyone is special and that everyone is welcome.
Holly Class found out more about Martin Luther King and, in particular, his famous speech. They reflected on their impact on the world, locally and globally and contributed their ideas for the future with dreams of how they might shape their world. You are never too small or too young to make a difference.
Willow Class created posters to celebrate diversity. They based them around key words and used symbolism to express their connection to others. They also collaborated with each other to write their own class ‘I have a dream’ speech.
Beech Class read about Harriet Tubman’s amazing life. They used expressive vocabulary to create moving poems with the title ‘From the Darkness into the Light’. They represented this journey with words and colour.
