Carol Leeming is a Leicester based artist who has been working with The City Classroom to help create a series of resources reflecting the need for a Black Curriculum for Leicester/Shire, welcoming work by Global Majority artists into everyday lives and learning environments.
The project also involved a range of Black & Global Majority academics and cultural arts practitioners and brought together local artists and educators to feed in to ongoing and urgent discussions about how a more relevant, representative curriculum for children in Leicester/shire can be created.
The aim of the resource collection is to encourage and support educational institutions to champion Black British artists who represent our society, to raise the profile of the culture, history and ground-breaking vision contained within Black British arts and to contribute to efforts to decolonise education.
