Campaign founder fears that momentum for change in English schools will be wasted
The founder of a leading education campaign to get black British history embedded in the national curriculum in England has expressed frustration at the government’s inaction, despite the growing clamour for change among young people.
Lavinya Stennett, who launched the Black Curriculum in January, said it was taking “way too long” and expressed concern that new government guidance on “extreme” political teachings in the classroom could hamper progress further.
