Policies
"The Forest of Dean Trust is an equal opportunity organisation and encourages all staff and students to be treated similarly, unhampered by artificial barriers or prejudices or preferences."
There are a number of important trust-wide policies that you should be aware of. We seek to monitor and update these regularly so the latest copies will be made available here as they are approved.
Please use the links below to view our policies. (Original signed copies are retained by the school).
