Following worldwide protests after the death of George Floyd in US police custody, there were calls for greater recognition of Wales' role in colonialism and slavery to be taught in schools.
Prof Charlotte Williams, who led a working group set up by the Welsh government to look at how BAME contributions through history was taught in schools, said there was considerable evidence of "racial inequality" in Wales' education system.
She said the new curriculum was an opportunity for "significant change", and it was the right of "every child to learn about histories and contributions that have shaped the Welsh nation".
In 2019, 12% of all pupils aged five and over came from minority ethnic backgrounds, but this differs widely across Wales, from 34.4% in Cardiff to 4.1% in Anglesey, according to Pupil Level Annual School Census data.

She is so disingenuous, she says 12% of pupils aged five are from minority ethnic backgrounds - not POC.
From the data in that it shows that 87.26% identify as white British.
Looking at the top immigration countries:
Poland 23,000
Republic of Ireland 10,000
India 13,000
Germany 11,000
South Africa 6,000
I assume that the children from this countries do not identify as white british,
There is also a question if Scots and Norther Irish identify as white british.
So lets change the entire curriculum to make whites feel guilty for being white for a small percentage of black students?
