Never Give Up!

Standing up for change and an end to injustice

PSHE Lesson Outcomes

Respecting ourselves and others: Recognising respectful behaviour; the importance of self-respect.

Founded in 1987 by Akyaaba Addai-Sebo, Black History Month UK was inspired by a 6-year-old child asking, ‘Why can’t I be white?’. He committed himself to ensuring all Black children in the UK feel proud of their heritage at school and in their communities.

Never Give Up inspires children to be an influence for change, challenging prejudice wherever they see it.

We’re raising our voice, we’re singing a song
We’re praying for peace and a brand new dawn
We’re shouting aloud, we’re joining our hands
We’re speaking for those who are on their own
Never, never ever give up
Never, never ever give up
Singing this song for a new day has come

I can’t recommend this organisation more highly. PopUK has free access to songs with backing tracks for class and whole-school singing.
