Special Educational Needs and/or Disability

Disabled children and those with SEN (SEND) are significantly more likely to experience bullying - including online bullying - than their peers.  Children who have learning disabilities and autism are particularly at risk. 

 

The Equality Act 2010 introduced a pubic sector equality duty.  All schools must have due regard to the need to:

  • eliminate discrimination, harassment, victimisation and any other conduct that is prohibited under the Act. 
  • Advance equality of opportunity between persons who share a relevant protected characteristic and persons who do not share it. 
  • foster good relations between persons who share a relevant protected characteristic and persons who do not share it. 

This duty covers the protected characteristics which includes disability. Schools must act if they are aware of the use of discriminatory language or language which targets pupils or school staff because of their protected characteristics.  More information is found in the Equality and Human Rights Commission guidance:
