Racial literacy: Sustained practice for educators
The UK is seeing a growing need for racial literacy in education, with teachers required to develop the knowledge and skills to recognize and dismantle racism in the classroom. Racial literacy is being built into national programs, such as the Diversity and Anti-Racist Professional Learning program in Wales, to help teachers develop this essential competency.
Racial literacy is becoming increasingly important in UK education. It involves recognizing how racism operates and working to dismantle its effects. In Wales, the national program Diversity and Anti-Racist Professional Learning positions racial literacy as essential to anti-racist professional learning. Teachers must develop the skills to connect their local curriculum with the wider world and recognize how racial inequality manifests. This requires sustained practice and self-reflection. The goal is to create an inclusive curriculum that begins with accurate historical literacy and positions the teacher as a continual learner.
