Access & Equity in Education
Access and equity in education mean ensuring all individuals have fair opportunities to learn, regardless of their background or circumstances. Access relates to removing barriers so students can enroll and participate in educational programs. Equity involves providing the necessary support to address differences in needs, so every student has a fair chance to succeed. Together, they promote a just education system where no one is disadvantaged because of race, gender, socioeconomic status, disability, or location. This approach aims for all learners to reach their full potential through inclusive and equitable policies and practices.
