    Cards (4)

    • To support: Gillborn - ethnocentric perceptions; teachers try not to be racist but may have judgements or percieve ethnic minority students negatively
    • Lack of ethnic role models in British schools - e.g. most teachers are White British
    • To support: the idea of an ethnocentric curriculum - focus on British values and ideas, students from ethnic minorities might not or won't be able to fully engage <-- may have no understanding.
    • How schools tackle racism - is racist behaviour identified and reprimanded or simply ignored?
