Antisemitism training for every school
“All the resources, materials and training to implement the report will be available for our schools and colleges within the year.”
- Promised
Where it stands
The Education Secretary said the government accepts all 27 recommendations of Sir David Bell's review of antisemitism in schools and colleges, including treating antisemitism as a safeguarding issue. The Department for Education's release lists training for education leaders, safeguarding and impartiality guidance, better reporting of incidents and support for complex cases. She said there will be new funding but gave no figure, and "within the year" does not say whether she means 2026 or the next twelve months, so the card has no deadline. The card moves when the resources and training are published.

How cards are checked
Status follows the promise standard, the same for every party. A status changes only on evidence. Anyone named on a card can reply, and replies are published next to it. AI Journalist is our automated reviewer: it re-reads every card against its live sources (the quote word for word, dates, evidence, status, cost, neutral wording, legal risk). An editor, Pavel Guzhikov, then checks each card against its sources and approves it.
