About ACEN (African Caribbean Education Network)

Addressing inequity and racial justice by improving Black underrepresentation and experiences in influential education and workplace environments ACEN was formed due to the recognition by parents/students that children of African/Caribbean heritage face unique challenges as well as opportunities, and we aim to be proactive in addressing both. “Our ultimate aim is to directly impact the number of Black people we see in society’s decision-making positions over a generation.” We do this by – Providing support and advice for African Caribbean parents navigating the school system – Creating, strengthening, and utilising our networks as parents, students, and teachers to improve educational experiences and career opportunities. – Developing educational and workplace pathways for our children to capitalise on now, and into the future. – Developing children’s characters and broadening their knowledge to include historical, political, economic and social justice education. – Guiding and consulting schools in relation to issues impacting on our children’s educational attainment and pastoral welfare.
