Equality, Diversity & inclusion.

Main Banner Image
At Gateshead College, we’re all about making sure everyone feels like they belong, are valued for who they are, and can succeed without any barriers holding them back. 

Whether you’re a student, staff member, partner, or just visiting, you’ll always find a warm welcome here.

We’re big on diversity and inclusivity, and we’re committed to being good allies and making a positive impact in our community. We work closely with individuals and partners to keep learning and growing, so we can meet the needs of everyone who’s part of our college family.

Our learners and staff play a huge role in shaping our plans. Through our course rep system, groups like our LGBTQI+ group, and staff inclusion group, and with the help of brilliant organisations like Show Racism the Red Card and Out NorthEast, we’re always striving to do better.
