Lord Khan of Burnley (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 9 September 2024

Debate

Anti-Muslim Prejudice and Hate Crime

Contribution

My noble friend makes an important point in recognising that school has a huge role to play in raising awareness and tackling discrimination. At a very early age, young people can understand our British values. I visited Middlesbrough, and that was what the community was telling me. We should be looking at this more closely, looking at the national curriculum. That is a discussion to be had with the community and the Department for Education. We will take that forward and pass it to the relevant department.
