Race Equality Policy

Introduction

In this paper I am going to discuss about the evolution of policy of 'multicultural education' in national curriculum in the UK. In addition, I will shed light on the evidences and problems of integration of various ethnic minorities which later on become instrumental in formulation of multicultural education as policy to address them. Moreover, we will contemplate on how it has made its road in the mainstream pedagogy in the form of intercultural education or multicultural education. What were the crucial instances which formed the base of policy further included as multicultural education or intercultural education Schools in the UK?

What is Multiculturalism?

Multiculturalism is very complex phenomenon or intermixed multi-layered concept which can roughly be contextualize with 'the demographic changes that are occurring in the Western societies from countries like USA, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, which have experienced the immigration and various movements of racial and gender awareness, that have forced these societies to confront questions concerning the ways they define themselves and other social institutions' (Kincheloe & Steinberg, 1997, pp.1). As per Bhikhu Parekh 'multiculturalism emerged in 1970' as a movement at first in Canada and Australia and then in USA, UK and Germany and elsewhere. He argues that it is best understood neither as a political doctrine with a programmatic content nor a distinct philosophical theory but as a perspective' (Parekh, 1999). The curriculum should reflect the ethnic and cultural diversity of up to date Britain. Good learning starts from distributing the know-how that young kids bring to school from a kind of ethnic and cultural backgrounds.

The school's aim is to endow students from few ethnic backgrounds to gain full get get get access to to to to the nationwide Curriculum and to develop schemes for recognising and overwhelming any obstacles that avert students from developing their full promise in school.

Curriculum Planning

The desires of EAL students in accessing the curriculum need to be carefully designed, as does the provision of a balanced and affirmative multicultural education.

Teachers need to double-check that:

The dialect and discovering desires of pupils are apparently identified and supplied for.

The language and discovering demands of the curriculum are analysed and support provided.

Visual support is supplied for key concepts.

Planning includes possibilities for first dialect undertakings in the classroom.

The support obligations of students are identified.

Curriculum and Classroom Practice

Teachers should have high anticipations of all students regardless of ethnicity, gender, or communal background.

Activities are matched to students' desires and adeptness and have a clear sense of progression.

There is clues of development in oracy and literacy through:

the awareness and utilisation of the children's first language expertise.

provision of scaffolding/writing frames.

using story props.

Practice and development in all 4 dialect abilities will be boosted through:

collaborative undertakings that engage talk.

opportunities for repsonse to others.

models made by gazes to display what can be achieved.

Classroom administration and groupings will boost and support hardworking participation by:

grouping and regrouping students for attached activities in alignment to evolve dialect skills.

'supportive experts' in each assembly ...
