Antibias Toolbox

As teachers, we are responsible for providing equitable outcomes for all children, and our local curriculum is expected to be inclusive.

As teachers, we are responsible for providing equitable outcomes for all children, and our local curriculum is expected to be inclusive. However, research clearly shows that some children are less successful than most in our education system. You have the power to make a difference for these priority learners.

This toolbox provides a range of tools, templates and thinking prompts to assist you to develop your understanding of how to develop antibias thinking and curriculum. A short video is included that gives an overview of the toolbox contents and their intended uses.
