Make Black histories compulsory across all key stages of the national curriculum

Petition Details

You must make Black histories a compulsory part of the national curriculum across all key stages and throughout different subject areas.

Additional Information

The national curriculum excludes Black histories throughout, and omits the vast contributions Black people have made to the UK. Young people must be given a true and accurate version of British history which should not reinforce the message that a vast part of the British population is not valued.
