Three Big Questions

Myatt and Co now features three big questions each term - one each on:

  • Curriculum

  • Inclusion

  • Leadership

    To help busy teachers and leaders to shape their answers to these vital questions we have curated a selection of key recordings which address them here.

    The big question this term for inclusion is: ‘What do we need to be aware of to ensure an equitable education for pupils from ethnic minority backgrounds?’

    Our suggested recordings and a route through them are as follows:

    First, watch ‘Inclusive practice’ (28 mins) to get an overview of the topic with Russell Pearson and Steven Eastes.

    Next, watch ‘Ethnic minority achievement’ (8 mins) to dive deeper with Sameena Choudry.

    Then, if you’re interested in how leaders can build capacity in this area, view Sameena Choudry ‘Leadership - Equitable Education’ (10 mins), or if you’re interested in considering problems with the way in which some people use labels to describe ethnic minority groups, view ‘A North African Muslim’s Perspective’ (51 mins) by Naila Missous to prompt additional considerations.

    Finally, watch ‘Emmanuel - ‘My story’ by Emmanuel Awoyelu (35 mins) to inspire further reflection.

    All these recordings are helpfully gathered together for you here.
