ABSTRACT

First published in 1987. Multicultural Education is designed to emphasise models of good practice tried and tested by teachers in multicultural schools throughout Britain. It describes both the issues of multicultural education and the practical approaches for teachers working in the classroom. The contributors, all experienced in the field, illustrate the ways in which teachers are responding positively to the changing educational needs of multicultural, multiracial and multilingual schools in Britain. The emphasis throughout is on 'starting where the pupils are' and building on what they bring to the classroom.
