"I worry when I see some politicians speaking about immigration as a problem that needs to be solved, indulging in some sort of arms race about how tough they are going to be on those who come to our country seeking asylum. I worry when I see flag"
School and college leaders are raising concerns about rising racial harassment affecting students and staff. An ASCL survey found that over one-third of school leaders reported incidents of racial harassment during students' journeys to and from school. The union's general secretary warns that political rhetoric surrounding immigration and divisive social media content are contributing to this climate of fear. The government has introduced a social cohesion strategy to promote integration and combat religious hatred and extremism. School leaders are calling for more responsible political discourse and accountability from social media platforms to protect vulnerable young people from harassment and violence.
