Mishto Pledge for Schools
Research conducted by Salford University identified wanting a good education for children as one of the main motivations for Roma migration to the UK. The same paper, as well as the Anti-Bullying Alliance identified that despite Roma children having a better experience in education than in their countries of origin, levels bullying and harassment of Roma pupils in UK schools is notably high.
Roma pupils are also more likely than their peers to be excluded from schools, as confirmed by Roma Support Group’s research.
While the majority of Roma children have better outcomes in UK primary in secondary schools than in their countries of origin, aspirations and access to further education remains a problem.
The Mishto Campaign has been developed to support primary and secondary schools to increase their understanding of Roma communities, engage more efficiently with Roma parents, and improve the experience of Roma pupils throughout their education.
We appreciate efforts made by schools to improve the situation.
We thank you for taking time to read about the Mishto Campaign.
To support your local primary/secondary school, commit to the campaign we have developed the Mishto Pledge for Schools and Mishto Guidance for Schools.
