The promotion of equal opportunity and equality and diversity are fundamental requirements of the Evaluation Schedule for Schools and Common Inspection Framework 2009 respectively, with both being limiting grades (i.e. an outcome of 'Inadequate' for equal opportunity for schools and equality and diversity for colleges is likely to result in an outcome of 'Inadequate' for Overall Effectiveness for both).

Embedding equal opportunity and equality and diversity at curriculum level is one way to demonstrate active promotion of both principles. This workshop will draw on research from higher education and consider practical methods to embed equal opportunity and equality and diversity within and around the Business curriculum without forcing the fit and focus on evidencing impact in self assessment/evaluation documents.
