This October marks 30 years of Black History Month UK, an opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate people and events paving the way for race equality. This is not to say that Black History is different, or separate, from our shared history taught in schools, or that it should only be acknowledged in October. Far from it, Black History Month offers dedicated time to highlight and celebrate Black History as an integral part of our shared history. It also serves as an annual reminder to take a careful look at everything that goes on in schools (from curriculum and lesson plans to resources, displays, events and more) and make sure that Black History is honoured and Great Black British Achievers are celebrated throughout the year.

With this in mind, CSIE has teamed up with Black History Month UK to offer two great resources at one discounted price. During October, take advantage of our combined offer and get the Black History Month Schools Resource Pack and CSIE’s toolkit Equality: Making It Happen together, saving over £10. The Black History Month Schools Resource Pack contains posters, assembly notes, lesson plans for key stages 1, 2 and 3 and more. Equality: Making It Happen includes equality audit tools, key information, practical advice, examples of good practice with regard to all equality strands, and more. Get both resources for only £60 and be well on the way to promoting equality in your school. For more information and to place your order please visit our resources pages.
