First, even excellent schools which do everything they can to prevent racism from arising, and to discourage racism when it does occur, still face an uphill struggle in attempting to eliminate racism altogether.
Second, the school involved in the study subsequently used the research findings positively to make their school even better.
In the dramatic tone of the article in The TES Scotland, these messages were overshadowed by allusions to “war on terror” and “the bin Laden factor.”

Alas, The TES Scotland report will only serve to discourage serious researchers for fear that their findings will be sensationalised.
