Discrimination in Education

Discrimination in education occurs when individuals are treated unfairly or unequally based on characteristics such as race, gender, disability, or socioeconomic status. This unfair treatment can manifest in various ways, such as biased teaching practices, limited access to resources, or exclusion from programs. Discrimination can hinder students' academic performance and overall development, creating an unequal learning environment. Laws and policies aim to protect students' rights and promote equity in education, ensuring that every learner has the opportunity to succeed regardless of their background. Addressing discrimination is essential for fostering inclusive and diverse educational settings.
