Racial Justice Action Planning Support

This session is designed to provide school leaders with the knowledge and skills needed to create effective plans for promoting racial justice and equity. Prior to the session leaders will be provided with a self-evaluation survey, to identify areas for development in a range of aspects of school life including curriculum, community and culture. The self-evaluation survey, and review of the school website, will support the tailoring of the session to the specific needs of the school. More generally the action planning session will:

review responsibilities within schools regarding with reference to the Equalities Act 2010

consider policies, practices and their impact

discuss the areas of school life where racial justice can be developed

determine the areas for prioritisation and the direction of the plan formulated

introduce frameworks that are available to support this work

include a follow up session where there will be opportunity for further collaboration and action plan review

To register interest click here.

Racial Justice through the Curriculum Training

This training is designed for school leaders and teachers who want to ensure the promotion equity and inclusion in their classrooms. Participants will consider how to incorporate diverse perspectives and experiences into their teaching; develop skills for facilitating discussions on sensitive topics related to race and racism and develop strategies to create an inclusive and culturally responsive curriculum. The training will provide practical tools and resources to help teachers create a more equitable and inclusive learning environment for all students and consider how this work can be incorporated using The National Curriculum. By the end of the session, participants will have a better understanding of how to integrate racial justice principles into their teaching practices, so children flourish in our diverse world.

Two high quality Black History Month resources have been collaboratively created with five schools from across the diocese. Both resources were developed with the vision of ensuring that all children develop a deep understanding of our collective Black-British History. These resources recognise and value the varied and rich contributions of the Black community to British communities, our wider society, and our individual lives. After successful trials in October 2022, these resources are now available to all schools for use during Black History Month 2023.

Support your students in engaging with the topic of race in a safe and constructive way.

Single Session

Our single professional learning sessions are designed to easily fit into your day. Typically one hour or less, these sessions explore timely and relevant topics including teaching strategies, current events, and more.

Instructor-Led

This professional learning event will be led by Facing History staff. When you register, you will receive instructions for how to attend the event.

Race is often regarded as a difficult topic to discuss in the classroom. This perception means that teachers shy away from broaching this important issue and exploring the effects that race and racism have on young people and wider society. This is problematic as students need to be able to discuss race, their experiences and their perceptions, if they are to challenge racism in the world around them.

Join us for a one-hour conversation in which we will provide activities and resources for helping students discuss race in the classroom in a supported and reflective way, and where there will be the opportunity to share experiences with and learn from other teachers.
This event is for teachers in the UK.

Make a 100% tax-deductible donation today and you'll help us reach even more teachers and students around the world, giving them the tools to fight back against hatred and bigotry.

Scriptwriting Workshop for 11-17 Year Olds

Saturday 7 October 10.30 - 4.30pm

Price: £40.00. Please select 'student' ticket when you book.

Tutor: Abigail Webber

This workshop will show you how to launch your screen ideas from the original concept to a structure for a working draft.

- the basics of script formatting (and why it matters)

- generating and developing your ideas

- research

- building credible, compelling characters

- the principles of story structure

We'll also touch briefly on format, genre and theme. You'll leave with a clear sense of the shape of your story and where it's going - and with plenty of writing opportunities during the day, you'll be able to produce some working pages and get feedback on them.

It's an interactive session, with lots of writing exercises and collaboration with the rest of the group. If you're not sure what you might want to work on, don't worry; not everyone will have an idea ready to go, but by the end of the workshop you'll have plenty of material and the tools with which to develop it.

Please bring a notebook and pens, and a laptop if you have one. There will be a lunch break. Food and drink will be available to purchase from the Cinema City Cafe Bar or you can bring a packed lunch.

​Use Into Film+ to explore Black history and experiences in the classroom

There is a notable lack of Black and Black British history across the UK curriculum, and while Black History Month each October is a valuable window to explore these topics, we believe that they should be embedded in young people's learning throughout the academic year. And the Into Film+ streaming service can help.

Black History Month can encourage schools to prioritise this area of British and world history, but more needs to be done to allow young people to understand how this history shapes the world they live in today, and how it impacts them individually. We are proud to celebrate Black History and Experiences 365 days a year with the aim of supporting and empowering educators to discuss Black stories from the UK and around the world.

Into Film+ is the UK's free* streaming service designed specially for schools and educational settings, and hosts a wide collection of thought-provoking feature films, shorts, and documentaries to help you explore these issues and inspire your learners all year round.

Sign up for a free Into Film Account to access our Black History and Experiences programme and so much more.

Stories of inspirational change-makers

In this programme, we want to celebrate a wide variety of past and present Black stories, as well as Black figures from all walks of life who have acted as inspirational change-makers for past, present and future generations. While many films focus on the deep injustices and trauma experienced by generations of Black people, we're also keen to showcase films that demonstrate Black experiences of joy, celebration, success and love. These facets of the Black experience are just as important to acknowledge, and can transform our ways of educating, learning, and thinking about these issues.

Why film is key to sharing Black stories

Film is a vital tool for learning, as it can elevate stories from under-represented groups and cultures, providing a space for their voices and perspectives to be heard. As an inspiring and far-reaching medium, film has the power to amplify historical and current events that can be overlooked.

As well as a range of feature-length films, we also have a whole host of short films, documentaries and additional material that celebrate Black history and experiences. As well as streaming films with Into Film+, you can download our free film guides and teaching resources, designed to support you to guide your students into new ways of thinking.

Check out just a small selection of the films we're offering below, and sign up now to begin your journey with film in the classroom.

* Screenings for an entertainment or extra-curricular purpose require a PVS (Public Video Screening) Licence from Filmbankmedia. State-funded schools in England are covered by the PVS Licence.

Sainsbury Centre: Roots of Resilience: Tesfaye Urgessa
20 September - 15 February 2026

# data[].attributes.body
Shaped by themes of geographical displacement and migration, internationally acclaimed Ethiopian artist Tesfaye Urgessa creates powerfully visceral paintings that interrogate the politics of war, race and identity.

Following a residency with the Sainsbury Centre, Urgessa will unveil a series of new paintings reflecting on the refugee crisis, which have been created in dialogue with the museum’s collection. Works will investigate layered narratives of war, migration, and survival, reflecting on resilience.

Roots of Resilience refigures the human body not as broken, but as bearing dignity, defiance, and the enduring capacity to heal. The human figure reflects not only personal and collective trauma, but also our potential for empathy, endurance, and transformation.

Works from the Sainsbury Centre’s global collection, such as Pablo Picasso’s Woman combing her Hair (1906), and Henry Moore’s Mother and Child (1932), among others, serve as key sources of inspiration and resonate with Urgessa’s own practice.
