📌 our new article! While the intention of #zerotolerance is well-meaning – ofc we don’t want to tolerate #sexualharm in #schools – in practice research findings highlight several conseqs to punitive and sanctions-based responses in schools. read here 👇🏽

Great infographic for schools - there’s more to zero tolerance than it seems. #edutwitter

@beckykitchen @SusanJPike @HelenNurton Amazing thank you! That’s what I was hoping for!

As a non-Indigenous person working in & around Indigenous peoples’ rights, I always reflect heavily on my positionality - almost to a point of paralysis. What is my place here? How do I ensure I don’t contribute further to colonial legacies? Especially in the context of the UK!

Hi @ExeterChiefs - how about you learn about Britain’s colonial history with Turtle Island, the ongoing impacts of those legacies today; -actually- listen to Indigenous Peoples and why it is incredibly violent to continue using this imagery;

Nodded vigorously throughout every page of this brilliant report. I would read this even if you are not in education - some great resources, as well as unpacking very important concepts for practice #AntiRacism #RacialLiteracy https://t.co/oE8LToeSSd @RemiJS90 @RunnymedeTrust

Proud of @vbradburydev who’s blog has been published with @ConvivialThink1! Food for thought on how we might (subconsciously) reproduce colonial discourses in everyday classroom geography. Looking Back to Walk Forward: Decolonisation as Self-Determination https://t.co/OwjWUWHcfQ

Inspired by @leathergeog, I have gone a bit mad on social media themed resources. My year 10s really liked them, thanks Sam! The Twitter ones have questions to promote further investigation. The Snapchat ones are aimed at recall/lesson starter. Each one displayed for 10 seconds.
