Anti-racist practice

A sense of belonging, not just fitting in

Our commitment

At Easton Children’s Centre we are committed to creating a space where all children, families, and staff feel truly seen, respected, and empowered.

Early Years Forum for anti-racist practice

How we work

Z

Embedded in Our Ethos & Curriculum

Anti-racism shapes everything we do — celebrating diversity, nurturing empathy, and using trauma-informed practice so every child feels safe, valued, and a true sense of belonging.

h

Policy, Procedure & Preparation

Our approach to handling discriminatory incidents is clear, caring, and educational — helping affected children feel supported and guiding others to grow in understanding.

We co-wrote the Anti-Racism Policy & Procedure, a template and guide for Early Years settings in Bristol.

Leading & Sharing Practice

As an Early Years Anti-Racism Hub, we are recognised for our inclusive practice and are invited to share at local and sector events.

The Centre also co-founded the Bristol Early Years Forum for Anti-Racist Practice, providing a space for professionals to reflect, share challenges, and support one another.

We built a network of professionals who meet regularly to discuss race equality across Bristol.

We also deliver training, open study days, and practice-sharing events.

Reflecting, Auditing & Growing

We believe anti-racist work is ongoing. We are developing a Race Equality Toolkit in collaboration with Bristol City Council and partners — a tool to audit our own practices, set targets, and track growth over time.

Purpose of the Race Equality Working Group

“Our aim as a network of professional working across the Early Years sector in Bristol is to collate a cohesive network that works together to progress the race equalities agenda in a joined up and strategic manner, to disseminate knowledge and practice, which has an impact on experience and outcomes.”
