Anti-Racism INSET

We have partnered with The ARISE Project to deliver an anti-racism INSET for Primary and Secondary Schools. 

​

ARISE are committed to fostering inclusive and equitable learning environments in schools. Together with More Than Flags and Rainbows, we recognise the critical importance of addressing racism head-on and are dedicated to providing comprehensive anti-racism training for teachers, support staff, governors, parents, and the wider school community.

Our goal is to empower educators with the knowledge and tools they need to cultivate an anti-racist classroom culture, where understanding, respect, and equality thrive.

​

Split into three sections, the training will provide stakeholders with background knowledge, so they understand the importance of this work, practical approaches to creating a more inclusive curriculum, and clear ways forward for all attending.
