“We must not only learn to tolerate our differences. We must welcome them as the richness and diversity which can lead to true intelligence.”

- Albert Einstein

“Culture is the widening of the mind and of the spirit.”

-Jawaharlal Nehru

At MY Cultur-ED consultancy, we specialise in supporting schools in meeting their statutory duty to culturally develop their pupils, and value cultural diversity and inclusion. Educating pupils about different cultures enriches their learning experience and improves their attainment levels and the whole school community.

It also highlights our shared humanity, and pride in our diverse cultural heritages, which helps to foster community cohesion. We firmly believe that our cultural differences should not divide us, but rather cultural diversity brings enriching insights that connect us all to our common humanity. 

We understand that time is at a premium for school leaders, but partnering with us will significantly enhance your efforts, accelerate progress, and deliver positive outcomes in these areas.

Whole school approach to our workshops will transform your community

    Our special guest day is a fabulous fun day, where we bring a special guest into the school to introduce the children to something culturally unique, whether it be learning a new art and craft, instrument, style of dance, drama, fashion or an award winning author for World Book Day or UN Day for Cultural Diversity on 21 May.
