Module Content

Outline Syllabus:
This module explores key themes within racial inequality in educational settings.
Module Overview:
Making use of multiple disciplinary frameworks by introducing debates in class, this module will examine educational settings as a site where racial and ethnic inequalities are simultaneously sustained and resisted. The module syllabus will consider the history of exclusion of racially minoritised groups, and how educational researchers have utilised various conceptual frameworks to understand the negative and limiting school experiences of children from racially oppressed communities. It examines possible counternarratives and interventions created through educational research, policymaking and social activism that may resolve, repair and redress long-term racial bias and inequalities
