1. Values, Inclusion, Equality and Wellbeing (VIEW)
Steering Group
The Values, Inclusion, Equality and Wellbeing (VIEW) Steering
Group provides leadership to mainstream and embed equality
across the College. The aims and objectives of the VIEW Steering
Group primarily focus on the College’s Equality Outcomes acting
as the lead to support progress in delivering the outco mes
successfully. A significant aspect of its function is to monitor the
progress made in respect of the equality outcomes and also carry
out the role of reference group for Equality Impact Assessments
(EqIA). Led by the Vice Principal of HR and Organisational
Wellbeing, the VIEW Steering Group will continue to support its
operational sub-groups including the Promoting Mental Wellbeing
Group. The remit of the VIEW Steering Group will also extend to
the development of campus-specific VIEW groups ensuring that
the ownership of inclusion, equality and wellbeing is embedded
throughout the whole College.
