Culture & diversity lessons to be introduced to the UK schooling Curriculum

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Introduce culture & diversity lessons in primary and secondary schools. Teachings of the multiple cultures and diverse backgrounds that reside in our society.

Inadequate knowledge about the different races in this world creates ignorance and hostility towards those with different skin tones and cultural backgrounds.
Education is key! Just as maths, Science and English are vital to get a head start in the working world so is the understanding of different cultural backgrounds to further ourselves in the Personal world.
In order to rid racism we have to start at the beginning.
Giving children the best start to understanding the world they are entering.
