Listen "Dismantling racism in British education"
Episode Synopsis
Minority ethnic teachers are still under-represented in all lanes of education, routes into education lack focused training on structural racism and unconscious bias, and exclusion rates for mixed white and black Caribbean boys continue to be disproportionally higher than that of white British boys. The education system in Britain needs drastic change.With experience both as a black teacher and a black student, Jeffrey Boakye’s journey through education has been one of exploration, from the outside looking in. Reflecting on what he has observed and learned, Jeffrey will discuss the habits, presumptions, silences, and distortions that underpin British education and offer his thoughts on the change that is urgently needed. #RSAeducationBecome an RSA Events sponsor: https://utm.guru/udI9xDonate to The RSA: https://utm.guru/udNNBFollow RSA Events on Instagram: https://instagram.com/rsa_events/Follow the RSA on Twitter: https://twitter.com/RSAEventsLike RSA Events on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rsaeventsofficialListen to RSA Events podcasts: https://bit.ly/35EyQYU
