Background to this resource

This site began with the ideas of a working group of practitioners, Education Scotland, CRER (Coalition for Racial Equality and Rights) and BEMIS Scotland (Empowering Scotland’s Ethnic and Cultural Minority Communities) in response to the Scottish Government’s Race Equality Framework for Scotland.  Education Scotland then led the development of this document with contributions from CRER and BEMIS. A range of stakeholders, many of whom are members of the Scottish Government’s Anti-Racism in Education Programme, then contributed to the work through focus groups with young people, the sharing of research and invaluable feedback on the developing materials.

We would like to thank all those who have contributed to the development of these materials.
