It opens with a short dramatic sketch written and acted by pupils from a school in South London. Another piece focuses on the kinds of unconscious racism that may be present in the classroom. Michael Hussey, a London school inspector specialising in multi-cultural schools, points out how unconscious biases from some teachers can shape teaching outcomes. Library text books reflecting a colonial view of history are examined and the language used is held up for scrutiny. Elsewhere themes of racism, multiculturalism and black history are explored as well as efforts made by some schools to make education more inclusive. Pupils at Hackney Downs in East London are seen participating in a history class about slave rebellions in the 1830s and the abolition movement. Poems are read in Jamaican dialect.
This film was first broadcast: 1979
