2nd and 3rd Level:
Identity and Intersectionality
This theme covers how we all have a racial identity and how some people will face discrimination on the basis of this.
It explores how different elements of our identity can combine to lead to multiple forms of discrimination, also called intersectionality.
Anti Racist Curriculum principles
Our educators and leaders will:
reflect upon their assumptions and biases, their racial and social identities and those of others, and consider the impact these have on their professional practice.
co-design and enact a curriculum that takes learners’ lives and experiences as a starting point, and actively source and introduce a diversity of perspectives, texts, identities and voices.
Our children and young people will:
experience a curriculum that meaningfully recognises and fairly represents the rich and diverse communities in Scotland and beyond.
be empowered to bring about new ways of being together in the world by valuing and promoting empathy, solidarity and shared humanity that is often disrupted by systemic racism.
