YELLOW FLAG PROGRAMME

THE YELLOW FLAG PROGRAMME  provides a practical series of eight steps which guide us to celebrate interculturalism, equality and diversity in our whole-school programme, allowing schools to apply them to their day-to day-running. It works with students, staff, management, parents and wider community groups so that issues of diversity and equality are not merely seen as “school subjects” but can be understood and taken outside the school setting into everyone’s personal lives. Similar to the Green Schools Programme, the Yellow Flag is an award scheme.
 
In St Tiernan’s our student-led Yellow Flag team have been working on completing the eight steps to be awarded our Yellow Flag.
