Case Study
It is setting policy to have a ‘Dads in school’ and a ‘Mums in school’ day every term. You have been told that this is discrimination because not every family has a mum and a dad.
- Is this discrimination under the Equality Act 2010?
- Which protected characteristics might be discriminated against?
- How could you make sure these events are not discriminatory?
It is rare that there is just one way to respond to a scenario or situation, so do not consider that the response you have chosen to this scenario will be judged as right or wrong. Share your scenario with a work colleague and ask them to tell you if they think you have responded appropriately. Ask them to challenge your response if necessary. You do not need to submit this task for assessment unless asked to do so by your tutor.
