Diversity: Diversity refers to something that is diverse, means that has different kinds or types. Example different languages, culture, religion, colour and background come together in a group is a diverse group. Equality: Treating everyone same with equal respect and providing them same opportunities is equality. Inclusion: Inclusion is being a part of what everyone is, being welcomed and embraced as a member who belongs. In other words, to make others feel included. Potential effects of discrimination: What is discrimination' When a person is treated less well, in comparison with someone else, because of his or her racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation. Effects of discrimination: A child when treated with discrimination at home or work setting faces many educational and social difficulties in life. Few of them are listed below: • Violence • Low self-esteem • Lack of confidence • Embarrassment • Withdrawal • Feels neglected and scared • Lack of interest • Lose identity • Bullying • Feels inferior These outcomes from discrimination might have a long term effects on the child’s social, emotional and educational growth. Inclusive practice to promote equality and support diversity: It is very important to have an inclusive practice in your practice which will help the children develop with the positive likelihood towards all the other pupils who are different around him/her. You can do that by: • Talking about all the other cultures around to show respect and equality. • Help the children to see the differences in a positive way as interesting and enriching to all our lives. While inclusive practice in the classroom setting, a teacher should make sure to offer quality of opportunity to participate, learn and develop. Each child is different and comes from different background; it’s very important for a practitioner to know the different needs and plan the activities that fits the child’s individual needs with “equal concerns”.
