Measures should be adopted to combat the indirect discrimination faced by children in education systems by removing the negative stereotypes and imagery often used in teaching materials, ensuring the inclusion in curricula of the histories and cultures of people of African descent, and the history of the transatlantic slave trade, and ensuring the cultural or linguistic relevance of teaching for children of African descent. Formal education at the early childhood, primary, secondary, post-secondary and adult levels must incorporate knowledge about the history of transatlantic slavery, the role of people of African descent in global development, and the diversity and richness of civilizations and cultures which constitute the common heritage of humankind. Comprehensive curricula reform should also tackle all forms of stereotypes;

- Quality has been neglected in the pursuit of education-related Millennium Development Goals and the Education for All agenda; the right to basic education of good quality for all remains unfulfilled. The post-2015 development agenda should engage States more resolutely in promoting and ensuring that the right to a quality education for all is given without discrimination or exclusion. Education of high quality is imperative for responding to the rising aspiration of youth and for creating a better future for them. While expanding access to education for all, Governments must take full care to ensure that minimum standards in education are maintained.

Report on the Post-2015 Education Agenda 2013, para. 109
- Paragraph text
- Guided by a rights-based approach, education goals should be formulated as entitlements, with the corresponding responsibility of Governments to their citizens to deliver on the goals and targets. Thus, the education agenda should be devised along the lines of rights-holders and duty-bearers: rights-holders include children, youth and adults who are entitled to receive or equitably access available education programmes; duty-bearers include Governments, or partners that assist Governments in their obligation to provide the policies, programmes and institutions that implement the right to education. As primary duty-bearers for the realization of the right to education, Governments are first and foremost responsible for providing a national education system that lives up to their commitments.
