What does it mean to ‘diversify’ the curriculum?
The phrase ‘diversity in the curriculum’ usually applies to the concept of a curriculum that is inclusive of the experiences and histories of those with protected characteristics, and often seeks to erase systemic barriers in our society through fairer and more equitable distribution of curriculum content. It serves to allow young people to think more critically about how knowledge is formed and how it comes to be valued.
Diversity in the curriculum does not replace or exclude anti-racist curriculum analysis and action.
A Diverse Curriculum allows young people:
– to see and be seen in the curriculum
– to interrogate how knowledge in the curriculum has come to be valued
– to hear ‘multiple co-existing narratives’ in all subjects
– to understand how systemic barriers manifest for those with protected characteristics and intersectional identities
Our 6-part programme will support you throughout an academic year, through a half-termly virtual session.
