Abstract

The words in the title were spoken by a Black female student in a predominantly White school in southern England. This article is based on a school-initiated enquiry which I was invited to undertake by the headteacher who was shocked by the number of racist incidents in the school within a three-month period. Researchers (Gillborn, 2005; Mirza, 2005) have reported that in the last thirty years the gains made in education related to ethnic diversity in our society appear to have been lost and old-fashioned racism has appeared again.
