Description
Equity in Education sets out a new approach to help teachers improve the prospects of under-resourced and working-class pupils. By addressing cultural biases and barriers within the classroom, and removing extra barriers to learning, this book offers practical strategies for creating a more equitable learning environment. Based on thousands of research studies and expert teaching practices, it provides four key principles for adopting an equity mindset: recognising the talents in all pupils, developing deep and authentic relationships, acknowledging multiple talents, and adopting a capacity-not-deficit approach.
