Description
Addressing the attainment gap in education has never been more pressing. Recent events have highlighted the significant disparities that exist for many pupils within the system, often due to factors outside their control.
This book provides trainees and teachers with a comprehensive understanding of the complex issues affecting disadvantaged groups, as well as practical strategies to address these gaps. It explores topics such as social class, gender, English language proficiency, minority ethnic achievement, and special educational needs and disabilities, providing an in-depth look at the evidence and statistics behind each group.
With a focus on building equity for all pupils, this book encourages educators to have high expectations of their students and provides evidence-informed strategies for schools to respond positively. A valuable resource for anyone working in education, it offers practical advice and real-world examples to help close the attainment gap and make a meaningful difference.
