My DC is of African Caribbean descent and has happily been educated in schools with majority white cohorts all of her school life. As my DC is looking at a number of new 6th forms they are considering the diversity of these schools when making a choice. For those BAME parents with DC in similar school settings how has this shaped, affected, benefited or burdened your child? Was this a conscious effort or was this something that you have no thought about
or was it just circumstantial?
White/non BAME parents would you/do you educate your children in settings where they are an ethnic minority? Is this something that you think about when choosing a school?
Honest answers would be appreciated.
Thanks
