Teachers in Scotland given guidance on decolonising the curriculum

Package also includes advice on how to discuss race and normalise diversity within lesson subjects

Teachers in Scotland have been asked to heed anti-racism guidance which will give detailed examples for decolonising the curriculum, as well as a toolkit to address their own discomfort when discussing race.

The Scottish government hopes the package of support material, released on Thursday, would embed anti-racism and race equality into all aspects of school life" - and includes new guidance from Education Scotland on normalising diversity within the curriculum.
