Estyn Strategic Equality Plan 2024-2028

Estyn is His Majesty’s Inspectorate for Education and Training in Wales. We inspect education and training in Wales. Our vision is to improve the quality of education and training and outcomes for all learners in Wales. Our mission is to support education and training providers to develop a self-improving and learning culture through our advice, inspection and capacity building.

We promote equality and diversity through the delivery of our strategic objectives, by drawing the attention of providers to their own duty to promote equality. Our equality objectives cover how we consider equality when we inspect and how we will ensure that our own staff and those we contract with have equality of opportunity and are
treated equally.

We believe that through our actions we can make a difference in creating a more equal Wales, as well as being a welcoming employer of choice for our staff. We are on a journey, and this strategic equality plan is ambitious in setting out our next steps.
