Introduction 1.1 This In-focus report provides more in-depth analysis across each of the main five broadcasters1 and should be read in conjunction with the main report. 1.2 Each section gives an overview of the six protected characteristics for which we collected data, showing profiles for all UK employees across each broadcaster. The top row (purple) shows profiles for gender, racial group and disability, for which data provision was mandatory. The bottom row (blue) shows profiles for age, sexual orientation and religion or belief, for which provision was voluntary. 1.3 Though broadcasters were not required to provide the information requested on a voluntary basis, we consider these to be equally important characteristics that should be monitored to effectively assess how well equal opportunities are being promoted across the industry. We made it clear in our information request that, to provide context and transparency, we would be publishing information on who did and didn’t provide the data requested. 1.4

Are school leaders not sufficiently anti-racist? ….. Page 8 07. No Comment ….. Page 9 Page 1 of 9 Editorial The return to school has been an anxious time for many parents. How safe are they for pupils, let alone for teachers and other school staff? Are mums and dads putting themselves at risk by congregating around the school gate? Will asymptomatic youngsters spread the virus? And so on. In truth, however, most of us now realise that the only thing that would have been worse than re-opening schools, would have been to have kept them, mostly, closed. Many schools have worked heroically to provide online teaching. Millions of young people, though, have been missing out. Children from under-privileged backgrounds have suffered most of all. Parents with limited literacy or numeracy skills, themselves, are least able to support their offspring. The gulf between society’s ‘haves’ and ‘have-nots’ has been widening. Is it going to be possible for pupils, of whatever background, to catch up what they have missed this year in terms of schooling? Pupils preparing for next year’s GCSE and A-Levels are most affected and their parents are justifiably concerned.
