This week’s Times Education Supplement Scotland has a feature about national and local efforts to combat sectarianism through school education. We want our young people to reject aggression, hate and religious intolerance, and become responsible citizens of a multicultural Scotland. Titled ‘Send Sectarianism flying into the back of the net’, the article reports on recent and current activities to change attitudes and behaviour, and combat this form of hate and prejudice. The work of both Rangers and Celtic football clubs to contribute to this societal change is described in the article.
Learning and Teaching Scotland is one of the organisations which has produced resources and advice to assist teachers working in this area, through a section of our Inclusion website.
The Sense Over Sectarianism campaign based in Glasgow has been active for years in work with schools, youth groups, theatre companies, etc, to address aspects of this community and citizenship issue.
