Racial justice learning for Quakers: a reflection

Updated 3 September 2020

During June and July I joined approximately 80 other Quakers in a series of five online workshops initiated in response to the killing of George Floyd, and the growth of Black Lives Matter protests in the UK. I didn't believe that I was racist; I certainly didn't want to identify as racist, but I knew that I might be clumsily unaware of some of the challenges faced by people of colour. I hoped that the workshops would increase my understanding and develop greater insight into effective allyship.

Quaker Question Time: listening and learning together

Updated 24 September 2020

"Love the questions themselves, as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer." -- Rainer Maria Rilke

Recent Department for Education guidance tells headteachers in England to ensure external organisations, speakers and resources do not take "extremist" stances. These include a stated desire to abolish capitalism and "a failure to condemn illegal activities done in support of their cause". The guidance also bans "victim narratives that are harmful to British society".

What next for Ofsted?

Updated 16 June 2023

In the peace education team, we've been following the passionate debate about Ofsted, the school inspections agency in England. Following an incident where a headteacher took her own life after a negative Ofsted inspection, the BBC reported that "the dam has burst on strength of feeling" about the agency. Former schools minister, Jim Knight, has now been asked by the National Education Union to chair the Beyond Ofsted inquiry to develop an alternative approach to inspection.

Meeting for Sufferings: a creative and vibrant body?

Updated 12 June 2024

I was appointed to Meeting for Sufferings when its terms of reference changed from trusteeship to discerning priorities. The change was intended to be profound. Meeting for Sufferings was to become a "crucible for sharing and testing all the witness … going on throughout the Yearly Meeting and a bridge between local meetings and central work" (Yearly Meeting 2006, minute 20).
