Schools must feature anti-racist messages across the curriculum, MSP says

The need for anti-racist education in schools is becoming more urgent than ever, teachers’ leaders have insisted.

EIS general secretary Larry Flanagan argued the rise of the far-right in politics made challenging prejudice an “important task” for all educators.

He spoke out as teachers and lecturers from across Scotland headed for Glasgow to take part in a special event to discuss what they can do to combat racism through education.

Labour’s Anas Sarwar, chair of Holyrood’s Cross Party Group on Tackling Islamophobia, will use his speech at the event to call for anti-racism education to be embedded across the school curriculum.
