Toddlers who turn their noses up at spicy food from overseas could be
branded racists by a Government-sponsored agency.
The National Children's Bureau, which receives £12 million a year, mainly
from Government funded organisations, has issued guidance to play leaders
and nursery teachers advising them to be alert for racist incidents among
youngsters in their care.
This could include a child of as young as three who says "yuk" in response
to being served unfamiliar foreign food.
The guidance by the NCB is designed to draw attention to potentially-racist
attitudes in youngsters from a young age.--- |
