Diversity in Primary Curriculum
A diverse curriculum is essential to offering a well-rounded and inclusive education. A curriculum that both reflects the make-up and needs of the school community itself, and is representative of all groups, cultures and ways of life in wider society. This lens ensures educational experiences can be richer and more powerful, addressing equity and social justice.
