The under-representation of characters of colour in children's literature in the UK is quantified in the CLPE's award winning Reflecting Realities research.Through this research, the CLPE actively disrupts the demand-and-supply chain and holds the children's publishing industry to account, encouraging it to do better. This book: * explores what Reflecting Realities teaches us; * empowers teachers to take positive to ensure classroom libraries are truly representative; * takes time to reflect on the research; * enables teachers to explore what constitutes quality representation; * includes practical support on how to translate this thinking into positive change in the classroom; * provides guidance for curating literature for young readers; * highlights how engagement with inclusive literature positively impacts school reading cultures and wider teaching and learning.
The book is full of simple, practical, formative assessment techniques and strategies, based on real classroom practices, repeated across the range of ages and abilities at secondary levels, in a variety of schools, that have been repeatedly shown to significantly improve examination results, and student involvement in lessons.
