The College has said that it adopted the International Definition of Antisemitism on 30th June 2021, but it was not clear from the College’s response whether the examples were adopted.
This information was obtained after Campaign Against Antisemitism submitted a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 on 16th July 2020. On 13th August 2020, the College responded. On 16th December 2021, the College updated its response.
On 16th December 2021, the College told Campaign Against Antisemitism that: “…WCG will be happy to reinforce the examples, as listed with the Definition, at its next Equality, Diversity & Values Committee meeting in the new year [2022].”
As part of its response, the College provided a summary of committee minutes, which confirm that the Definition was adopted. Additionally, the College published a statement on its website on an unknown date in 2023, which only cited the introductory paragraph of the Definition
When asked on 11th August 2020, Warwickshire College Students’ Union failed to confirm whether it has adopted the International Definition of Antisemitism.
No incidents have been reported to us, however we recognise that antisemitism is chronically underreported and it is possible that there are incidents that have not been reported. To report an incident, please contact us.
