Community Conversations

17/7/2022

 
St. Mary's is part of a Lewisham pilot scheme to raise the awareness of racial inequality in schools.  We also wanted to look at how this affects our families in housing and health. 
We began the process by having a "house meeting" in school with parents.  This involves everyone taking a turn to speak for 1 minute and allows everyone to have their say.​ Two questions were presented;

  • Tell us about a moment that made you think about race inequality in education, housing or health.
  • What is one change you'd like to make as a school community?

From the discussions it was clear that there are lots of areas where our children face race inequality - from the variation of reading books offered to the motifs found on glasses in Specsavers for children! Health inequality also appeared to concern our parents.
This is just the start of many conversations we need to have with our community in school to fully understand the issues and we need more parents to take part so do come along next time! ​
