FAQ

  • Why study at Equality School?

    Equality School is a social purpose organisation. All courses are bitesize and none of them are the boring usual blablabla content so often seen online. Equality School believes we have to be the change we want to see in the world. We strive to achieve this by allowing course participants to gain a better understanding of how the world works for other people.

  • You say Equality School courses are co-produced. What does this mean?

    Co-production means that Equality School courses are designed by people with lived experience of the topic. If you are studying a course about living with a certain disability, the content will be designed with someone who lives with that disability. If you are studying a course about anti-racism, the content will be designed with a person of colour who has experienced racism.

  • Equality School is not-for-profit but there is a cost to enrol on a course. Why is this?

    Courses cost money to produce properly and host online. Equality School pays the people who co-produce course content. Bursaries are available to individuals who want to study with the school but can't afford to. Any surplus generated by a course is donated back to a relevant community group or charity.

  • Why Equality?

    Equality is not used as often today as the term diversity and inclusion. At Equality School we see diversity and inclusion as very important aspects of equality. Legally and ethically true social justice stems from equality of opportunity for all. We believe centering diversity and inclusion before establishing equality between all people builds the much-needed house of diversity and inclusion on a bed of sand.
