The Culture of Our School

As well as the Culture the Instructors strive to adhere to within our Academy, there is also a ‘Culture for all’. This exists so that everyone in the school; instructors, volunteer staff, students and parents alike, know exactly what is expected of them and what they should expect of others.

 

Culture For All

All those interacting within the Academy are expected to be positive, enthusiastic and conscious of their role in helping to create an atmosphere of fun and excitement, engendering a ‘can do’ spirit in all.

 

Staff and instructors should be treated with respect by all, at all times, as they are there to help.

 

The facility and all equipment provided should be treated respectfully and looked after to ensure its continued availability for use. Equipment used and worn in the Academy will be subject to inspection and approval by the chief instructor before use.

 

Students and parents of young students should be treated with respect by all, at all times, as they are there to learn and facilitate the learning of younger students.

 

The instructors, parents and students that come into our Academy do not gossip about other students, parents or instructors at any time.

 

The instructors, parents and students that come into our Academy do not carry bad feeling towards others within the Academy.

 

Any complaints shall be dealt with using the Academy’s complaints procedure, a copy of which is available from reception.

 

Dress codes within the Academy will be adhered to by all Instructors and students alike.

Cleanliness is a pre requisite for training in our Academy. Personal hygiene standards are expected to be high and uniforms are also expected to be clean at the beginning of all classes. Fingernails and toenails must be short, long hair tied back and no jewellery can be worn.

 

Instructors, students and parents of students in our Academy are positive, enthusiastic, caring individuals that combine to make our school a centre for enjoyment and development in our community.

 

 

The Academy is committed to ensuring that equity is incorporated across all aspects of its development. In doing so it acknowledges and adopts the following Sport England definition of sports equity:

 

Sports equity is about fairness in sport, equality of access, recognising inequalities and taking steps to address them. It is about changing the culture and structure of sport to ensure it becomes equally accessible to everyone in society.

 

The Academy respects the rights, dignity and worth of every person and will treat everyone equally within the context of their Martial Art or other activity within the Academy, regardless of age, ability, gender, race, ethnicity, religious belief, sexuality or social/economic status.

 

The Academy is committed to everyone having the right to enjoy their practise in an environment free from threat of intimidation, harassment and abuse.

 

All Academy members have a responsibility to oppose discriminatory behaviour and promote equality of opportunity.

 

The Academy will deal with any incidence of discriminatory behaviour seriously, according to it’s disciplinary procedures.

 

An Instructor may determine that it is not advisable for a participant or prospective participant to take part in classes because of their condition or disability. This is likely to be where that condition or disability will substantially affect the safety or ability to learn of the participant or others in the class. Where this is the case, the Instructor will fully consider all possible alternatives, such as individual instruction.
