FILL IN THE BLANKS

Fill in the Blanks of our history. A campaign led by students from former British colonies seeking to mandate the teaching of colonial history. @AdvocacyAcademy

It would be amazing if this was real! We’re a group of black & brown teens from formerly colonised countries who wish Britain’s full history was taught to everyone! @EducationGovuk @NickGibbUK will you make this happen to create a more united Britain? https://t.co/4wqc3kHNf4

Yesterday, we caught you up on the story of our ever-elusive meeting with Minister for School Standards, @NickGibbUK.

It's time to get to know #FibbyGibby a little bit better....

[FILL IN THE BLANKS @fillinthblanks]

Soon after his appointment as Schools Minister in 2010, he said he would rather have a teacher that was: #FibbyGibby

(Postgraduate Certificate in Education)

[FILL IN THE BLANKS @fillinthblanks]

In June 2020 when asked whether the curriculum needs to better represent all communities in Britain, in light of BLM, he responded: #FibbyGibby

[FILL IN THE BLANKS @fillinthblanks]

But following the growing support to teach the truth of colonialism, our agreed meeting was never rescheduled & instead the Minister declared that the current curriculum is satisfactory...

Keep your 👀 peeled this week to help us ensure #FibbyGibby keeps his original promise‼️

❓Who is Fibby Gibby ❓

Read and share our story below to hear how Schools Minster, @NickGibbUK, has managed to avoid scrutiny and earned the rightful name, #FibbyGibby

[FILL IN THE BLANKS @fillinthblanks]

Following our January newspaper action, @NickGibbUK agreed to meet with us to discuss the teaching of colonialism in schools across the UK....

[FILL IN THE BLANKS @fillinthblanks]

Over the next four days, Fill In The Blanks will be shining a spotlight on the man who has, so far, managed to stay in the shadows. We’re excited to finally give him the stage he deserves... #FILLINTHEBLANKS powered by the @AdvocacyAcademy

Class, please give a warm welcome to Mr. Gibb, Minister For School Standards @NickGibbUK ❗️We’ll be spending the week together.... #FibbyGibby

[FILL IN THE BLANKS @fillinthblanks]

Today we are introducing #FibbyGibby to the world. “Fibby Gibby” is the alt-ego of @NickGibbUK Minister of State for School Standards. We need you to know his name, because he is the person with the POWER to mandate the teaching of colonial history on the national curriculum!

Top marks to our ⭐️ graphic designer Elinor OBrien for her creativity and generosity! You’re the 🐐!

[FILL IN THE BLANKS @fillinthblanks]

There’s someone very special we can’t wait to introduce to you tomorrow....

Due to poor performance, we have put @GavinWilliamson in detention. Let’s see if @NickGibbUK can rise to the occasion. We’ll be in class from 4:00pm tomorrow - come join us‼️
