Educating Young People on Islamophobia
Resource for Educators Resource FAITH IN US Educating young people on Islamophobia Faith in Us: Educating Young People about Islamophobia Introduction This resource has been designed for both primary and secondary teachers for use in the classroom to work with young people and educate about Islamophobia. The resource provides background information outlining the reality and impact of Islamophobia on both young people and wider society; starting points to help educators to ensure that they are creating the right environment for the work to take place; and activities for educators to run with young people. The activities have been developed in partnership with young people and tested in classrooms throughout the UK. The resource also provides guidance as to the steps that schools can take to help young people report incidences of Islamophobia and respond appropriately to both perpetrators and targets, in order to create settings where all young people feel safe and able to achieve. The aims of this resource are to: • Outline the moral and statutory duties on schools to engage in work on Islamophobia • Share good practice approaches and activities to educate young people about Islamophobia • Support schools to respond effectively to incidents of Islamophobia • Provide links to further sources of information and support This resource is not intended to provide a comprehensive overview of the religion of Islam. There are many good resources and organisations which provide this in line with the RE curriculum. We have provided links to some of these at the end of the resource. This resource was produced in partnership with young people in Tower Hamlets as part of EqualiTeach’s Agents for Change: Islamophobia programme which ran from October 2017- May 2018 and was funded by the Home Office Hate Crime Communities Project Fund. -

The History of the Development of British Satellite Broadcasting Policy, 1977-1992
THE HISTORY OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF BRITISH SATELLITE BROADCASTING POLICY, 1977-1992 Windsor John Holden —......., Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of PhD University of Leeds, Institute of Communications Studies July, 1998 The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others ABSTRACT This thesis traces the development of British satellite broadcasting policy, from the early proposals drawn up by the Home Office following the UK's allocation of five direct broadcast by satellite (DBS) frequencies at the 1977 World Administrative Radio Conference (WARC), through the successive, abortive DBS initiatives of the BBC and the "Club of 21", to the short-lived service provided by British Satellite Broadcasting (BSB). It also details at length the history of Sky Television, an organisation that operated beyond the parameters of existing legislation, which successfully competed (and merged) with BSB, and which shaped the way in which policy was developed. It contends that throughout the 1980s satellite broadcasting policy ceased to drive and became driven, and that the failure of policy-making in this time can be ascribed to conflict on ideological, governmental and organisational levels. Finally, it considers the impact that satellite broadcasting has had upon the British broadcasting structure as a whole. 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract i Contents ii Acknowledgements 1 INTRODUCTION 3 British broadcasting policy - a brief history -
