This practical workshop will share the work of Loughborough Primary School (
www.loughboroughprimarylambeth.org.uk) in creating a diverse curriculum. The school has drawn on the work of Orlene Badu, a system lead for the Young Black Men Project, as well as its link governor for diversity and inclusion Dr Nic Mullings, who holds a doctorate in race in education.
Headteacher Laura McPhee will discuss how to devise a roadmap for decolonising the curriculum, ensuring the appropriate accountability measures/systems and structures are in place, improving racial literacy, collaboration with the school community, widening your network to include local and national organisations that champion justice, and equality through community action and education.
The workshop will also discuss the role of governors, including Dr Mullings' role in co-authoring the school's mission statement for diversity and inclusion and heading the Diversity and Inclusion task force of governors that monitor this work.
