Best Practice: How to deal with discrimination

 

If you are discriminated against – or you witness discrimination against another – because of gender, age, social status, cultural factors, marital status, disability, or for any other reason, you are encouraged to report it.

There are three reporting options depending on the severity of the discrimination and/or the option you are most comfortable with:

• Report to SMC/BoG
• Report to TSC-DO
• Report to TSC-HQ via the TSC website grm.tsc.gov.sl

It is preferable to report the incident in writing and, if possible, provide documentation. The TSC guarantees confidentiality.

For minor instances of discrimination such as verbal discriminatory language you may wish to handle the matter informally through the school leader, provided the school leader is not involved and you trust him or her.
