Description

In recent years, the issue of race in education in the UK have been submerged in wider discourses of diversity, leading to an invisibility of the quotidian experiences of marginalised peoples in educational institutions. Race, Education and Educational Leadership in England looks at how the experiences of black and ethnic minority (BME) students and academics in education has changed and investigates how the implementation of current policies on race equality are being monitored by the government. The contributors take an integrated approach, looking at issues and themes that occur across all educational phases in England and draw on expertise from within and outside the education system. The editors highlight areas of weakness and good practice in access, curriculum, progression and the lived experience. This book makes a compelling argument for why race equality matters in Englands education system.

Reviews

A must-read for those with responsibility to shape policy as well as all students, teachers, leaders and researchers of race and social justice in education. The book reminds us that race equality should not be left to chance or be left to the responsibility of the people of BAME heritage alone. * Educational Review *
