I am writing to you under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to request the following information from Wokingham Borough Council. Please may you provide me with:

1. Confirmation if you currently have an Equality, Diversity and Inclusion ('EDI') policy which impacts specifically on schools within your area.
Wokingham Borough Council does not have a policy relating to EDI work with schools. Schools may have their own EDI policies.

2. Copies of your EDI policy and all associate literature on anti-racism that inform teacher training, teaching and the curriculum in schools.
There is no EDI policy – see question 1.
Other literature: Please find attached the programme of support for racial equity offered this academic year as part of our wider work on EDI, for schools that would like to explore their thinking in this area to help them to develop their own provision and policies. Please also find attached a set of aims and principles, drawn up in partnership with stakeholders and agreed to by headteachers, which inform our work with schools.
Teaching and the curriculum are the responsibility of schools, who are required to follow the national curriculum. Each school has its own curriculum statement on its website.

3. Details of any third party organisations that you liaise with in support of the preparation and facilitation of your EDI policies within schools, including for teacher training.
