Following the success of our annual events launched in 2021, which were held at Dulwich College, St Paul's and City of London Schools, this event aims to address critical gaps in structural change by providing insights into making educational spaces safer and more inclusive for racially minoritised students and teachers.

Sessions:

Panel Discussions: Featuring headteachers, EDI leads, and students sharing their experiences and strategies.
