Modern Studies teacher, @robfmac.bsky.social, spoke to us at our conference about the need for teachers to understand the reality of the world around them so that they are equipped to teach our children and young people about that reality - and inspire the change we need to realise a better future.
**NEW TEACHING RESOURCE** The latest addition to our Days After Pedagogy series is here: ‘The Day After War Breaks Out’. This lesson framework supports teachers to lead guided discussion of war. Designed for 2nd level learners. Download the PDF here: educatorsforpeace.co.uk/teaching-res...
Alison Mitchell spoke to us about the role that School Leaders Scotland (SLS) can play to ensure that educators have the courage, confidence and knowledge to educate for a better world.
Education International calls for an immediate end to the killing of children, the protection of teachers, and a halt to the destruction of education systems. Schools must never be targeted, occupied, or militarised.
Important reminder for teachers - there is no neutrality when discussing a genocide. Andy Harvey of EIS spoke to us about some the challenges teachers navigate when they are considering teaching about current events.
At our first conference @ross-greer.bsky.social argued that young people want to understand the Palestine issue. He also noted the historic responsibility Scotland has and the importance of teaching young people how to tackle injustice. It’s why we continue to call for a national teaching resource.
