• to ensure that arrangements for pupil admissions across the schools are fair and non-discriminatory

• to minimise any achievement differences between pupils of different genders

• to minimise any achievement differences between pupils from different ethnic groups

• to minimise any achievement differences between pupils from different religious groups

• to minimise any achievement differences between pupils who have disabilities and those who do not.
