Blackpool and the Flyde College

University Definition adopted

The College appears to have adopted the International Definition of Antisemitism on an unknown date.

The University told Campaign Against Antisemitism that: “…B&FC does not publish its support for any one specific, individual group over any other. However, please be assured that reference to the work of the IHRA is made in both mandatory induction and refresher training on Inclusion for all employees and is used as one example of an external driver in our (draft) EDI Strategy.”

This information was obtained after Campaign Against Antisemitism submitted a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 on 7th July 2020. On 13th July 2020, the University responded. On 22nd June 2021, the University updated its response.

When asked on 24th July 2020, Blackpool and the Flyde College Students’ Union confirmed that it had not adopted the International Definition of Antisemitism on 19th October 2020.
