We brought three of our Inclusion Consultants together to discuss their views on how Decolonising the Curriculum can lead to a more inclusive environment where all students thrive. Here’s what Jingheng (PhD candidate, Henley Business School), Santhiya (Law undergraduate) and Tarek (History undergraduate) had to say.
What is decolonising the curriculum?
Why is decolonising the curriculum important?
Is focusing on diverse experiences ever a disadvantage to white students?
Can all subjects be decolonised?
Isn’t this really about the students’ attitudes to learning at the end of the day?
What would you say to convince teachers who already have a great track record that DTC is important for them too?
Is it a complex process that takes a lot of time?
How do we know if this stuff works?
