SRtRC North East Region: Developing Your Anti-Racist Teaching Practice.

Our team held our first anti-racism CPD day for teachers in the North East at the end of March and it was a real success! We invited teachers and educators from across the region to take part in a day full of important discussions.

 

Our aim was to create a safe environment for teachers from a variety of educational settings to share ideas, tackle difficult conversations and re-imagine current curriculum to become more inclusive and antiracist.

We understand how powerful knowledge is and want teachers to become more confident in anti-racism enabling them to thrive in their professions too. We hope that this will be the first of many events bringing educators from across the region together to share best practice and create progressive, inclusive and safer learning environments for young people.

 

100% of participants who filled in our post training survey said that:

  • They felt safe to contribute to the session.
  • The course content was beneficial and has given them practical tools to take forward in their educational setting.
  • Their knowledge of unconscious bias and privilege had improved.
  • They feel confident going forward to have difficult conversations with colleagues and students.

100% rated our course facilitators as excellent.

Most useful elements of the course:

“The non-judgemental atmosphere for sharing our understanding and pitfalls.”

“The level of expertise by the facilitators who were able to answer questions and listen to personal experiences from them and from people attending the course.”

“Space to reflect on what we do as an institution by asking us the right questions. Hearing the experiences of others.”

“Sharing & listening to lived experiences, time to listen to different perspectives Clear explanations & examples of language”

Additional comments:

“Fantastic, so useful – should be compulsory CPD.”

“The course leaders were knowledgeable & passionate.”

“A great course, I hope to work with you again in the future, thank you.

“As always very informative and up to date. Thank you.”
