Estyn has published a report looking at the degree to which race equality policies and action plans are effective in managing practice and securing improved outcomes for learners from minority ethnic groups in primary, special and secondary schools.

The report specifically evaluates the impact of schools’ race equality policies in:

• the extent to which schools are meeting statutory requirements;
• how schools are monitoring aspects of their policy and practice; and
• how managers in schools are using information from monitoring to secure improved outcomes both socially and academically for minority ethnic groups of learners.

The report contains a number of recommendations for the Welsh Assembly Government, local authorities and schools.

The report is available to download from the Estyn website.
