Sinossi

Invites readers to undertake active leadership addressing equity in their own contexts.

Aimed at teachers and trainee teachers, this book examines lived teaching and researching experiences which illustrate and challenge the inequities that arise in classrooms with diverse student bodies. The authors use ideas of intersectionality and hybridity to examine complex issues of race, in addition to language and language variety, religious practice, educational background, socioeconomic status, family and/or individual status, institutional culture, local context and historical memory.

Through honest and transparent reflection on real-life occurrences the book invites its readership to acknowledge the political and practical constraints under which they work, critically reflect on their own practice, and from this develop pedagogies and practical actions to better serve the communities within which they live and work.
