Introducing anti-racism as a compulsory module within secondary schools.
By introducing anti-racism as a compulsory module within key stage 3, we aim to enrich all students with a broader understanding of all races and cultures. We are currently living in a globalized world; diversity is essential for not only personal growth but also for our economic capital.
How could anti-racism be integrated within our current education system?
HISTORY: Civil rights movement, black empowerment, colonialism. Industrial revolution.
ENGLISH: Teaching texts and narratives from POC, offering alternate views on the world in which we live. Opportunities for public speaking, debate, and activism.
SOCIOLOGY: Why people who have experienced racism behave the way they do? Why certain subgroups feel marginalised/ alienated from the wider society. Globalization.
GEOGRAPHY: Colonisation, Immigration & migration in the UK 21 Century.
PHSE: Real-life documentaries of racism. Discuss solutions on how to eradicate racism which could include workshops, personal experiences, guest speakers.
SCIENCE: Scientists, inventors from other races/ cultures.
