Inspire Education Group (IEG) was proud to be involved in the Peterborough Citizens Accountability Assembly at Queen Katherine Academy. The event provided a fantastic opportunity for our staff to connect with local decision-makers and influencers to discuss key issues affecting our city, including upcoming local campaigns and the upcoming General Election.
The Assembly offered a thought-provoking space for attendees to gain a deeper understanding of how Peterborough Citizens is shaping the city’s social justice agenda. IEG’s EDI Coordinator, Charlotte Akester, even took to the stage as a speaker, introducing the impactful “It’s Not Banter” campaign.
Charlotte further highlighted IEG’s commitment to tackling social issues by outlining the group’s initiatives, such as the implementation of an Anti-Racism Training program and a thorough review of policies and procedures to address covert racism, bullying, and harassment.
IEG remains dedicated to fostering a positive and inclusive environment within its schools and across the wider community.
The company’s participation in the Assembly underlines its commitment to working collaboratively towards a more just and equitable future for everyone.
Last year, Peterborough Citizens held their Founding Assembly as the newest chapter of Citizens UK at Peterborough College, part of the Inspire Education Group.
Peterborough Citizens, a people-power alliance of diverse local communities working together for the common good, looks to develop local leaders, strengthen local organisations and make positive changes.
We seek to transform the lives of our students and trainees, preparing each for their next step, whatever that might be. We support employers to develop their people and their organisations. We strive to make a positive contribution to the prosperity and well-being of our diverse communities.
We will continue to create and nurture long-term, strategic partnerships that support us in responding to the needs of our different communities, contributing to the social and economic prosperity, growth and aspiration of our locales, and building the resilience of our Group.
People are at the heart of our Group, whether that is our students and trainees, our partners in industry and local services, or our staff who deliver outstanding education and training and shape our culture, ethos and values.
