Equality and Diversity

What is your ethnic origin/disability? We, as a college, require this information because the Race Relations (Amendment) Act 2000 and the Disability Equality Duty Act 2005 state that it is good practice to monitor complaints by ethnicity and disability. This helps to eliminate discriminatory practice.
