Bishop Stopford’s School passionately takes great pride in its richly diverse community. We embrace a multitude of ethnicities, identities, cultures, and religions. Through a calendar of events, a monthly diversity bulletin and our staff and student ambassadors, we wholeheartedly commit to creating an inclusive environment, where discrimination, bullying, harassment, or victimization have no place.

Our aim is to nurture a culture where everyone appreciates uniqueness, feels at ease expressing themselves, and experiences a genuine sense of belonging. We celebrate individuality and diversity while advocating for inclusion and equal opportunities. We understand the significance of embracing a variety of ideas, histories, knowledge, and cultures, recognizing the enhancement they bring to our school.
