What does it really mean to grow up Black in the British education system?
In this powerful, guest-led episode of Listen & Spill, we unpack the experiences many Black children carry long after the school bell rings — from being labelled “disruptive” or “too loud,” to feeling unseen in the classroom and underestimated by the very people meant to guide us.
Sarah and Georgia are joined by special guests to reflect on first school memories, moments of racial awareness, behaviour bias, and the quiet ways school shaped confidence, identity, and self-worth. Through honest conversation, Sip or Spill questions, and personal stories, we explore how early labels follow us into adulthood — and what still needs to change.
In this episode, we discuss:
• Being hyper-aware of your race at school
• Teacher bias, discipline, and low expectations
• Code-switching, hair policing, and identity masking
• The lack of Black British representation in the curriculum
• How school experiences show up later in life
• What Black children need to truly thrive in education
This isn’t just about school — it’s about survival, healing, and reclaiming identity.
💬 We’d love to hear from you:
What was your school experience like — and how did it shape who you are today?
