<p style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal" class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"> Rapid globalisation and mass migration have ensured that ethnic, religious, linguistic and cultural diversity now characterises most societies; in fact only a handful can be described
as ethnolinguistically homogenous. Many societies can now be characterised by the phenomenon known as super-diversity (Vertovec, 2007), a term describing a scale of transnational migration, sociocultural complexity and ethnolinguistic identification that
has never been seen before. </span></p>
<p style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal" class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"> Yet relatively few language education policies have attempted to accommodate multilingualism. Despite research evidence pointing to the social and cognitive benefits that accrue
from multilingualism, most language education policies are oriented towards standard languages and tend to serve the interests of dominant groups rather than those of minorities. In post-colonial contexts, most policies have focused on the promotion of proficiency
in the former colonial language(s) and/or a dominant local lingua franca in formal schooling.</span></p>
<p style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal" class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"> Recent overviews of the field emphasise the distinction between macro, meso and micro level planning activities and stress the importance of human agency in language policymaking
and planning. Others distinguish between top-down to bottom-up planning. This special issue hopes to bring together contributions from researchers in different geographic and linguistic contexts to explore how various actors have responded to linguistic diversity
in education at macro, meso or micro levels and from top down or bottom up perspectives.
</span></p>
<p style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal" class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"> We invite papers that discuss language policy and planning responses to multilingualism in different educational settings. Contributions that make critical evaluations of language
policy and its implementation in any sector of education in any part of the world are welcome, as are papers that deal with standard, non-standard, heritage, indigenous, community and immigrant languages, minority and/or contact languages in education. Topics
may include but are not limited to the following:</span></p>
