Reports of racist bullying in Edinburgh schools have risen in the past year according to a new report.
During the school term, an average of 30 cases of racist bullying are reported every month, but this may be only the tip of the iceberg as Edinburgh’s education department admits a culture of 'under-reporting' whilst anti-racism groups in Scotland believe that only one in four cases are being brought to light.
Beatbullying’s Interfaith scheme recognises and celebrates differences and suggests that all faiths should be positively endorsed, encouraging young people from different backgrounds to work together for the common good, building bridges between people of different faiths with a view to overcome interfaith bullying, bigotry and intolerance.
