These activity packs contains practical activities designed for teachers and support workers with accompanying guidance notes.

All are ready to use, photocopiable and catalogued in an accessible and user-friendly index.

The activity plans and resources have been designed primarily to support the implementation of equal opportunities into teaching and learning; however, they can be easily adapted to suit any age range. Many of the activities are interchangeable with different resources or alternatively the teacher can use their own.

All activities are positive with a focus on engaging and challenging the learners. The emphasis is to value learners’ and staff opinions yet encourage them to discuss and challenge their own ideas. The tasks are not to make the participant ‘politically correct’, but to encourage them to debate, empathise, educate and thus inform them on equality issues, their importance, how they affect others as well as the moral, legal rights and obligations that we all share.

It is only by challenging participants that attitudes can be changed. The emphasis needs to be on a positive and reflective engagement. Many participants may feel strongly about their opinions, no matter how discriminatory they might be. Many participants may be unwittingly discriminatory, but may not intend any harm. Yet with the use of engaging and entertaining activities the participant will be given the opportunity to experience a different view point and/or discuss issues with those who have suffered discrimination, unwitting or otherwise. Some participants will find challenging their own long held opinions an uncomfortable experience. The teacher/lecturer must not treat such opinions as a threat; the emphasis is on encouraging the participant to change their own views.

By making equality and diversity training both fun and stimulating in a passive non-threatening environment, use of these packs will provide the ideal opportunity for participants to reflect, challenge and hopefully alter their views.

PLEASE NOTE: *Although the information contained in these files was up to date at the time of issue, you are advised to check information on this disk for accuracy and updates; the pack was developed in 2008 and there have been legislative changes since that time.

Since the Equality Act 2010 came into force, we have developed a new pack - Practical Tools for the Delivery of Equality and Diversity which is an updated version of this pack and is for sale on our website
