The government's response to the REACH groups recommendations (REACH is an independent group commissioned by government that made five recommendations on how to improve the aspirations and attainment of Black males) has the following:
- Establishing a national role model programme and support for local groups
- Local Authorities should support the establishment of Black-led consortia on a local level
- Ensuring the many school initiatives are effective for Black pupils
- Ofsted and others should report on how well schools are satisfying race equalities duties

Hi Dean,
Interesting set of proposals and hopefully if its successful in rasing aspirations amongst the school-age black male community, then raising the attainment levels will follow and it'll become a virtuous circle.
