Who is this event for?
The Schools and Teachers team believe that all young people should see themselves reflected in everything they encounter, both at Tate and in their classrooms. Working with teachers to best support young people to thrive, we celebrate difference and take a proactive, anti-discriminatory stance in all that we do.
We particularly welcome teachers from the Global Majority, disabled teachers, and teachers in SEND schools or alternative provisions to attend.
This event is relevant for teachers of any subject and will bring together professionals at any stage of their career, from a range of learning settings and specialisms.
This Teachers' Private View is supported by Open Hand.
