Stop the seclusion of Black boys from schools
Pupil referrals need to be closed down.
Schools need to have a separate fully funded unit where the children can be taught and assessed.
Schools need to show how Pupil premium is spent.
Adoption funding should provide educational assessment and neurological for Black boys as a right/core need.
Why is this important?
There needs to be a dismantling of systemic racism in our schools.
Organizational policy and structures need to change in order to support our children who are the future. The current frameworks of education allow racism to thrive and be cultivated.
Seclusion of Black boys add to the culture of youth violence, criminality and mental health problems. Children need to be educated in schools.
