Towards an Anti-Racist Tower Hamlets
Tower Hamlets is one of the most diverse boroughs in the country, and as part of the borough’s Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic Inequality Commission Action Plan, it was recognised that schools and educators play a key role in shifting narratives and creating long lasting change. Therefore, the Commission funded a year long project for 18 schools across Tower Hamlets to begin their anti-racist journey.
The project is funded for a second year, with 90% of the schools returning to continue their journey, and new schools joining our network of Anti-Racist Schools.

“Having the network and support of likeminded professionals I have found the most helpful. Sharing information and ideas with other projects lead and knowing that you are not going through this alone.”
Our training package for schools in Tower Hamlets was developed by Abha, Faaria, Ruth and Triny, with Darren as our critical friend.
