Diversity and Transformation Policy and Annual Reports

Herschel Girls School is an inclusive South African school that strives to produce outstanding, competent, and inspiring young women who will contribute meaningfully to our society, South Africa, and the world at large. The school’s Diversity and Transformation framework is an important policy providing for the foundation of the inclusivity objective of the school. This framework serves to recognise that inclusivity is both a morally sound and educational imperative. In seeking to articulate the transformation agenda and journey for Herschel Girls School, we have been guided by the Constitution of South Africa, our cherished Anglican heritage, and our explicit commitment to a culture of mutual respect and inclusion.

This section of our website details our policy framework, the work and progress achieved so far to create a school of genuine belonging.
