Groundbreaking LDA report

This week, we bring you the groundbreaking LDA report into the underachievement of Black children in modern education. Only available to read here, the report (initiated in 2003 by Diane Abbott MP and Lee Jasper (then Mayoral Adviser for Equalities and Policing) whom worked in close partnership with the LDA officers and Carol Hunte, Principal Consultant for the Education Partnership Company, to deliver the work of the Education Commission) exposes and fine points a host of factors—a lack of accountability for school performance, biased teaching methods, and a significant decline in achievement among Black students. The report is key to understanding the status of our children in the current school system, and serves to further authenticate our efforts towards afro centric, heritage based learning environments.
