Motion text

The horrendous treatment of Child Q shows that the appalling reality of institutional racism in education and policing continues.
Institutional racism is endemic in the police force.
We have to make sure that the issues raised by the inspirational Black Lives Matter movement are not now simply brushed under the carpet.
Child Q has to represent a line in the sand. We will not allow our students to be abused in this way.
UCU supports the ‘black child’ conference initiated by Diane Abbott MP, Stand Up To Racism and others on Saturday 11 June.
We support the call raised in the Voice newspaper for ‘cops out of schools’ and colleges and believe there is no place for an institutionally racist police force in schools or on campus.
