Institutional racism, socio-economic factors and low aspirations from teachers are causing boys of Caribbean descent to fail in school.
That's the view of founder of The Westside and Lewisham Young Leaders Academies, by David Okoro.
Children of black Caribbean descent face significant educational disparities, with lower achievement in GCSE, higher rates of exclusion and are more likely to end prison.
The academies offer a range of programmes, including mentoring, leadership development, and exposure to successful black role models to raise confidence, aspirations, and skills among black youths.
In this podcast David Okoro and Chidera Nomeh, a student at Westside Academy join Angela Walker to talk about the positive impact of the academies and to discuss the wider issue of what can be done to close the gap.
The academies face funding challenges and rely on grants, donations, and volunteers to continue their work. David emphasises the need for government intervention and investment to address the systemic issues contributing to the underachievement of black young people.
