Screentime Australia for ABC

Hosted by Marc Fennell, The School That Tried To End Racism Australia is a documentary series that explores a ground-breaking school programme that tests racial bias in an ordinary class of primary school students.

It is based on a pioneering American scheme and will be led by specially trained teachers and overseen by race expert, Professor Fiona White where pupils will take part in games, exercises and activities, both in and out of the classroom,that will challenge everything they thought they knew about race.

By providing greater empathy for fellow students and offering tools for breaking down the social divides. Will this bold new experiment stop racism for good?
