The rise in antisemitism presents a challenge for all of us.
Schools and colleges should be places where young people can discuss difficult issues, challenge prejudice and learn to debate respectfully.
These conversations can be complex, but we want to encourage debate. That's why we're backing teachers and school leaders with training, guidance and practical resources, giving them the confidence to lead these discussions well.
Schools will not face this challenge alone.
In this generational moment we have a real opportunity to challenge antisemitism, build understanding and create more inclusive school communities.
An important piece from Children and Families Minister @JoshMacAlister on why schools adopting the IHRA definition matters in tackling antisemitism.
He explains how the definition helps schools recognise and address antisemitism.

Watch my full statement on the findings of Sir David Bellās independent review on antisemitism šš»

Jewish Labour Movement retweeted
51% of Jewish teachers - many of them NEU members - experienced antisemitism in school in the past year.
Fixing this starts with defining the problem. IHRA spotlights the insidious and often subtle nature of antisemitism. It doesn't stifle criticism of the government of Israel.
The NEU responds to the Bell review

Antisemitism has no place in our schools, colleges or society.
We accept all 27 recommendations from Sir David Bellās review. We will equip schools and colleges to identify and challenge antisemitism, strengthen Holocaust education and help every young person learn in safety.
This statement shows the NEUās inability to grasp the problem of antisemitism in our schools.
Is it any wonder Jewish teachers and students have lost faith in the NEU?

Tackling antisemitism should be a priority to all schools - not just those with Jewish students.
Sir David Bell's review makes suggestions to help every school and college prevent antisemitism and support education professionals navigate difficult conversations confidently.
@LucyMPowell met with education leaders and those in the Jewish community to discuss how the government will respond to the review.

Antisemitism and racism have no place in our town halls' š¹
We support the Labour Partyās call on Green Groups in local government to condemn the āZionism is Racismā motion.

Antisemitism is shamefully rising across the globe, and it's going to take all of us to tackle it.
Yesterday I met leaders from the J7 to discuss this unique hatred targeting Jewish communities and to learn from each other's experiences and approaches.
By listening, learning and sharing what works, we can strengthen our response to antisemitism and help ensure Jewish people in our communities can live safely and confidently.
At PMQs, Prime Minister @andyburnham told the House of Commons that he condemns the Green Partyās āZionism is Racismā motion as antisemitic.
Burnham also said that the Labour Party cannot support a partnership with a party that holds an antisemitic position.
