Children in years 5 and 6 had an excellent anti-racism workshop with Mpula Lawton of ARISE: Anti Racism in Schools and Education. The children learned the meaning of ‘Get Up, Stand Up,’ ensuring that they always report any instances of racism and discrimination against themselves or others. The children also discussed the impact that racism has on people and how words and slurs have a huge impact on the people that they are used against.

Mpula Lawton has previously delivered whole staff training.

Roding Primary School is proud to be an actively anti-racist school, and we look forward to continuing our anti-racism ethos throughout our teaching and learning, alongside our lessons and assemblies which also combat all forms of discrimination.
