disparities in education

Educational disparities refer to the unequal access and quality of education among different groups, often influenced by factors like socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity, or where someone lives. These disparities can lead to gaps in achievement, resources, and opportunities, limiting individuals' ability to succeed. They are rooted in broader social inequalities, affecting who can attend well-funded schools, receive quality teachers, or access extracurricular support. Addressing these disparities involves understanding and reducing these systemic barriers, so all students have a fair chance to learn and thrive.
