Our book is published by Legend Times / The University of Buckingham Press. We are excited to have worked with 11 chapter editors and 114 contributors on this writing project.

The Diverse Educators’ book is structured, like our website, around the Equality Act. There are ten chapters, one for each of the nine Protected Characteristics (Age; Disability; Gender Reassignment; Pregnancy and Maternity; Marriage and Civil Partnership; Race; Religion and Belief; Sex; Sexual Orientation) with a tenth chapter exploring intersectionality.

Each chapter has a chapter editor (s) who has worked with ten contributors offering a multiplicity of perspectives on the protected characteristic being explored in the chapter. Each contributor has interwoven their personal and professional narrative, framed in theory, to respond to current and historic debates. The chapter editor has written an introduction to the chapter to give context and to frame the chapter’s narratives, arguments and provocations.

We are committed to capturing the collective voice of our community and to showcasing the diverse lived experiences of educators. We are keen for Diverse Educators: A Manifesto to be both academic and accessible. We intend for the book to be solutions-focused with high-quality input on practice, pedagogy, people management and policy.

We are delighted by the endorsements that our early reviewers of our book, Diverse Educators: A Manifesto, have shared with us.
