Abstract
Abstract Using the Masters in Archives and Records Management at University College London as a case in point, this chapter seeks to problematize the origin stories that are told within professional recordkeeping education in the United Kingdom. By tracing how the concept of impartiality is explored within the UCL MA programme, this chapter problematizes the White Eurocentric lens through which key conceptual and theoretical underpinnings are introduced, while seeking to highlight the affective impact this can have on the student’s lived experience of the curriculum. Through this exploration, the author argues for a re-envisioning of how the anchor points of archival theory are taught and introduced within archive education in the UK, with a more thorough de-centring of concepts such as impartiality and the development of a curriculum that pays respect and gives space to long-standing archival traditions, concepts, and practices that currently remain sidelined and unseen in the traditional professional canon.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
