Factors such as ethnicity, disability and material deprivation are associated with inequality, social exclusion and the risk of low educational attainment. Diversity also reflects divergent cultural values and norms. In responding to the challenges posed by diversity, public education authorities are to some extent constrained by individual or group rights. This book examines the nature of these rights, including those under the European Convention on Human Rights, and the ways and contexts in which they operate. Their social effects are also considered. Areas discussed include the curriculum, special educational needs and choice of school. A key theme in the book is the promotion and enforcement of equal access to education, including higher education. Issues of multiculturalism, the social integration of minorities, religion in education and the recognition of children's independent rights are among those that are also discussed. The book centres on England and Wales and covers the evolving legislative framework, including the Education and Inspections Bill 2006, but relevant legal developments in other states are also highlightedEducational law and legislationEnglandEducation & the lawEducational law and legislationWalesMulticultural educationEnglandMulticultural educationWalesElectronic books.Educational law and legislationEducational law and legislationMulticultural educationMulticultural education344.4107Harris Neville S.1954-1041092UtOrBLWUtOrBLWUkLoBPBOOK9910451456703321Education, law and diversity2464393UNINA
