Abstract:

Diversity – social, cultural, linguistic and ethnic – poses a challenge to all
educational systems. Some authorities, schools and teachers look upon it as a
problem, an obstacle to the achievement of national educational goals, while
for others it offers new opportunities. Successive PISA reports have laid bare
the relative lack of success in addressing the needs of diverse school
populations and helping children develop the competences they need to succeed
in society. The book is divided into three parts that deal in turn with policy
and its implications, pedagogical practice, and responses to the challenge of
diversity that go beyond the language of schooling. This volume features the
latest research from eight different countries, and will appeal to anyone
involved in the educational integration of immigrant children and adolescents.
