Closed Make the teaching of Black history compulsory in primary and secondary schools

Closed on

I would like the Government to require schools teach Black history as part of the national curriculum, to ensure students receive a culturally diverse education. Black history shouldn't just be acknowledged in its month, October, but should be a core part of the curriculum.

I would like the Government to take action so that Black history is taught to our future generations. This could help increase the confidence in the Black community and foster a more positive social environment.
