For the past two years, we've been working to redistribute the £1.2 million in funds we received after the #BlackLivesMatter uprisings in 2020. We are excited to finally share the details, process, and outcome of our second round of funding 🙌🏿🙌🏿 Thread on the #BLMUKFUND 🧵
Join us for a screening of Made In Britain on July 12th! See Eventbrite for details: tinyurl.com/madeinbritain13 The film is a must-see for educators, offering a helpful critique of the role institutions play in shaping young people's lives past and present.
This thread along with the poll results show what we knew when we founded Class 13: Teachers want to promote equity in their schools, and in order to do so they need access to comprehensive training and support around racism and wider oppressions.

It is said that schools are a reflection of the society they exist in. Stephen Lawrence day is a time to reflect on the societal racism that enabled his death. Today we educators must ask ourselves, "What am I doing to proactively cultivate equity in my classroom? #edchat

Have seen lots of people on #edutwitter expressing shock/anger at this Biff and Chip story. Teachers - how do you handle it when you or a student comes across racism/xenophobia in a school textbook or library book? #edchat #equity

Today we did our first in-person INSET day with @SebrightPrimary! It was great to be physically in the room with passionate educators, finally. Judging by the feedback the staff enjoyed it as much as we did! Get in touch if you would like us to deliver training at your school!
Today is the day! After a couple of false starts at the beginning of the year, tonight we are facilitating the first session of our (De)Constructing an Anti-Racist Classroom training with teachers. Wish us luck!🎉#antiracist #edutwitter
Great to see one of Class 13's favourite quotes circulating on Twitter this morning #bellhooks

We're used to seeing the police in the spotlight for institutional racism, but Child Q's experience took place at her school, which the knowledge of her teachers. Child Q calls for all adults involved to be held accountable, and we stand with her.
