| Abstract (English): | This graphic timeline reveals the story of Race in British schools as it unfolds from the 1950 post war period of post-colonial migration and settlement to the present-day aftermath of the 2020s Post-Covid Pandemic. Spanning 75 years, this unique mapping charts the changing social and political context of Race-relations which shaped the British educational response to Black and Brown children in hitherto White classrooms. Decade by decade from the 1950s onwards, the analysis examines how and why specific Race and Ethnic policy discourses evolved such as Multiculturalism in 1980s, Institutional Racism in 2000s and Decolonisation in 2015. It situates the deep national racial and religious fears that fueled controversial policies such as the bussing of Caribbean pupils and PREVENT aimed at the surveillance of Muslim communities' post 9/11. Furthermore, it situates the historical roots of established approaches such as EDI (Equality Diversity and Inclusion) which we take for granted today. The article concludes by coming full circle exposing the entrenched intersectional Race and class inequalities which the Covid19 Pandemic has now laid bare in British schools. (DIPF/Orig.) |
