Closed 42 signatures

What the petition asks

The government should review the work done by Glenthorne High School, featured on The School That Tried to End Racism, and seek to add this to the school circularium for the benefit of improving society.
The UK Government has shown on its website the issues faced by different ethnic groups that show inequality. This can be viewed at https://www.ethnicity-facts-figures.service.gov.uk/.

Unconscious bias plays a big part in these issues and by educating pupils it can have the benefit of improving the mindset for future generations.
