What is an Ally? What is Allyship?

Why should we teach it in primary schools?

Allyship is many things.

It is empathy, community, action, positivity, inclusion, anti-racism, aspiration and more. Allyship is learning about diversity and difference and making a conscious choice to support those who are marginalised.

This learning has always mattered in primary schools.

In this book, educator Frances Akinde outlines what allyship is and why it matters more than ever in primary schools today. Through practical guidance and support, Frances empowers teachers to take positive action right now. Her practical support includes lesson ideas, learning activities and key resources.

Through allyship. children can learn to be agents of positive change in their schools and communities. This book enables teachers to bring this learning to the classroom.
