Equalities Report | Page 4

4 Foreword As Principal, I look forward to working with our students, staff, employers and stakeholders as a dynamic, inclusive and innovative college serving the communities and businesses of Ayrshire. A key part of this vision is to tackle the significant inequalities that are prevalent in our communities. Our aim is to work in partnership with all of our key stakeholders to advance equality of opportunity to enable students to achieve their full potential, maximise the opportunities available to them and improve life chances. We want to challenge gender stereotyping in career and learning choices and encourage students to study across the whole range of subjects we offer and to break down barriers. Thank you for taking the time to review the progress we have made in mainstreaming equality and inclusion within Ayrshire College.
