Students and staff donned the dress of their cultural heritage or wore Pride-themed clothing in celebration of their uniqueness.
The team of staff members who organised the Diversity Day event was delighted at how much it has managed to raise for two incredible charities: Crawley LGBT and Refugees Welcome Crawley.
A teacher from ICC said: “We’re all really proud of the hard work our students, and staff, put into making our first Diversity Day such a success! It couldn’t have been done without everyone’s positivity and collaborative attitude.
