During the Anti-Racism in Education summit, First Minister @JohnSwinney spoke of the value of leadership in supporting Anti-Racism practices in schools. Held virtually, the summit brought together education leaders to discuss ways to embed anti-racist approaches in education.
Image of John Swinney, First Minister of Scotland alongside a quotation from the First Minister. Quotation reads: “While anti-racism is everybody’s job, senior leaders have a particular duty to set standards, and to create cultures within school communities that are truly anti-racist. “And they must be supported by government in doing so. “We must recognise the institutional and interpersonal barriers that exist, holding too many children and young people in Scotland back from living freely in their full potential.”
