2nd and 3rd Level:
Race and Racism

This theme covers how ‘race’ is a social construct, what racism is, and how it happens at a range of levels across society.

Anti Racist Curriculum principles

Our educators and leaders:

  • will commit to continual personal and professional learning to develop a high level of racial literacy.

  • will foster an anti-racist culture where race and racism can be discussed openly, honestly and with humility, and with a willingness to take risks and make mistakes while remaining accountable for their actions.

Our children and young people:

  • will be critical thinking global citizens that challenge discrimination and prejudice through an understanding and awareness of the behaviours, practices and processes that create injustice in the world.

  • will learn the difference between individual and systemic racism, their impacts, and how they intersect or connect with other types of injustice
