Gypsy and Roma children have the highest exclusion rates from school and only 3-4% go to university. A new scheme aims to change that

found children from Gypsy, Roma and Traveller groups most likely to be excluded or “off-rolled”, and least likely to achieve formal qualifications. It said the children experienced “high levels of bullying based on their ethnicity that largely goes unaddressed in schools” and called for the Department for Education formally to adopt the term “anti-Gypsyism” as a form of racism.

Hate is your word. I'd use 'intolerant of' and given their reputation to date for gross littering, tax avoidance and extravagance, smelling bad ( yes i have noticed this) theft (from shops i have worked in) It's understandable if not ideal

No pledge to help teachers victims of religious activism ?

Universities sign worthless document for the optics, meanwhile continue to allow hate speakers and oppress student rights and concerns, while increasing their own sense of importance and salary.

Is the term Gypsy appropriate? Isn’t that a slur?

They can fix this themselves by having a modicum of respect for the places where they decide to settle.

BlackImpact_ makediversityc They signed a similar compact/charter re race equality and yet racism on campus, in the workplace and across universities increased. GypsyTravellerM

In my experience, after travellers have visited my town they always leave things looking so clean and tidy you'd never know they'd been.

If you don't fit into what someone thinks is acceptable you will be branded. Thats the way it has always been.
