Nishkam High School, a UCL Beacon School for Holocaust Education

In 2018 Nishkam High School became a Beacon School for Holocaust Education, striving to improve the quality of Holocaust education. In today’s world it is important that we educate young people to recognise the warning signs of genocide, so that future attrocities may be prevented. At Nishkam, we believe that an academic understanding of The Holocaust, underpinned by UCL research and grounded in survivor testimony will enrich student understanding of how genocides can happen, help prevent hate crime, and nurture tolerance and respect for all.
