Islington passes motion for All World History, All Year Round!
After several years of campaigning, Islington Council have passed a motion stating that Black history should be fully integrated into the school curriculum. The motion warned that progress in promoting black history, culture and heritage would be severely limited unless subjects are embedded in the school curriculum all year round. This pioneering commitment will see Islington Council continue it's partnership with Every Voice, where we're helping local schools with pedagogy and resources to integrate diverse narratives in the history curriculum, for an All World History, All Year Round approach, where all pupils can see themselves in the history they study. Read more about the motion and the exciting work we doing with the council here.
