Summary

This submission is from a team of educators and researchers working within the Ngarrngga program which supports teachers nationally to showcase Indigenous knowledges across the curriculum.

They discuss the impact of racism on Indigenous students and the need for anti-racist, culturally responsive teaching. They call for schools to be supported in showcasing Indigenous knowledges, ensuring safety and belonging for students, and addressing systemic pressures on teachers. Reform agendas must acknowledge the time, space, and emotional bandwidth teachers need to contribute meaningfully to reconciliation efforts.
