We’re excited to announce that we’ve secured £10,000 of funding from @ukblm! This has come at a crucial moment for Class 13 and we thank Black Lives Matter for recognising the importance of what we’ve trying to achieve.

Our long-term aim is that young people and teachers are more engaged in learning. We want schools to step away from a punitive zero tolerance approach to education and move towards education as the practice of freedom.

Join us for a screening of Made In Britain on July 12th! See Eventbrite for details: tinyurl.com/madeinbritain13
The film is a must-see for educators, offering a helpful critique of the role institutions play in shaping young people's lives past and present.

This thread along with the poll results show what we knew when we founded Class 13:
Teachers want to promote equity in their schools, and in order to do so they need access to comprehensive training and support around racism and wider oppressions.
Does your school offer any training to help develop staff in order to deliver sessions on race equality to students? Is this something that we’re failing to recognise as a profession and need to address now? Interested to hear all your thoughts. RT appreciated.

Hackney and Tower Hamlets teachers can train with us for free this June! Just 5 weeks until the kick-off session of East London Learns Together. Register or request more information here: forms.monday.com/forms/af9ce…
Train with us for free! We've secured funding to invite 2 teachers from 8 schools in Tower Hamlets/Hackney to join our East London training cohort free of charge. Spaces are filling up quickly, so be quick if you teach in one of these boroughs!

We only have capacity for 16 teachers: 4 primary and 4 secondary school staff from each borough. Hackney primary school places are already full.
Let us know if you would like more info on this opportunity: forms.monday.com/forms/af9ce…
We look forward to hearing from you!
Thanks for the love @AntiRacistLibr, it was great to catch up with @OSaunders92 - looking forward to keeping in touch😄
One of our co-founders @OSaunders92 met with @Class__13 last week to find out all the wonderful work they are doing with school staff.
Give them a follow, they may be able to help your staff recognise, reflect and respond to their racial and wider biases #BeTheChange

It is said that schools are a reflection of the society they exist in. Stephen Lawrence day is a time to reflect on the societal racism that enabled his death.
Today we educators must ask ourselves, "What am I doing to proactively cultivate equity in my classroom? #edchat
Today marks 29 years since the senseless murder of Stephen Lawrence.
We must use Stephen's legacy to make positive strides to eradicate institutional and systemic racism in the police, and across the UK.
Let's serve him that justice.
Rest in power, Stephen 🕊️

Have seen lots of people on #edutwitter expressing shock/anger at this Biff and Chip story. Teachers - how do you handle it when you or a student comes across racism/xenophobia in a school textbook or library book? #edchat #equity

Today we did our first in-person INSET day with @SebrightPrimary! It was great to be physically in the room with passionate educators, finally. Judging by the feedback the staff enjoyed it as much as we did!
Get in touch if you would like us to deliver training at your school!

Today is the day! After a couple of false starts at the beginning of the year, tonight we are facilitating the first session of our (De)Constructing an Anti-Racist Classroom training with teachers.
Wish us luck!🎉#antiracist #edutwitter
