The Association of Heads and Deputes Scotland (AHDS) is committed to upholding the principles of equality, diversity and inclusion in all that we do. We recognise our responsibility to ensure that our organisation, and the wider educational landscape in which we work, is inclusive, equitable and respectful of all individuals.
We are currently in the process of developing comprehensive statements that will address our positions on racism, disability inclusion, and the rights and experiences of LGBT+ people. These statements will articulate our values, outline our commitments, and inform the actions we will take to support positive change.
In the interim, we affirm our unequivocal commitment to equity and inclusion, and to fostering a professional community where every individual is valued and empowered to thrive.
