About Modern mums Club
Our Mission is to Equip Mums with the Tools and Skills They need to Improve Their Children's Educational Outcomes.
You are welcome to Modern Mums Club, where fun mums meet, network, and thrive.
HISTORY:
Modern Mums Club was launched in December 2012 by two friends, to support Modern Mums of Black, Mixed Race, and other Ethnic Minority children to improve their child’s educational outcomes through ‘Stay Calm parenting strategies and Values-based parenting.
THE STATISTICS
The 2020 statistics commissioned by the House of Commons UK show that Black and Mixed Race Pupils have the lowest pass rate for English and Maths combined at GCSE.
This statistic is not new! In fact, when Bolupe Maborukoje (co-founder) was researching her postgraduate degree in 2010, she was alarmed to see similar data on underachievement amongst Black and Mixed-Race children from Early Years to GCSE and A-levels.
WHY WE CAN’T IGNORE THIS DATA
In 2019 alone, there was 30,753 live birth from mums residing in the UK but whose country of birth was in Africa.
Every year, we have thousands of Black and Mixed-Race children born into a system with historical underachievement and the lowest pass rate of any other ethnic group.
Imagine only 45% of 30,000 Black and Mixed-Race children born in 2019 making the standard GSCE grade in 2035. This is unacceptable!
The time to act is now.
