Educating for Race Equality - A Toolkit for Scottish Teachers is a resource commissioned by the Scottish Executive and developed by the Centre for Education for Racial Equality, Learning and Teaching Scotland and the City of Edinburgh Council Education Department. It will be distributed as a CD-Rom and is also available on www.digital-stream-ltd.com/rac-eq.
One of the case studies of good practice explains how staff at Arthurlie Nursery School in Barrhead, East Renfrewshire, are aware of the need to introduce pupils to cultures different from their own and implement anti-racist education, even though very few minority ethnic families live in the catchment area. It says, 'The school is bright, open, cheerful and welcoming; the ethos is one where children and their parents or carers would feel both secure and relaxed, with dedicated and motivated staff offering every opportunity for children to explore both their differences and their similarities.'
