DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION IN PRIMARY EDUCATION
Discrimination in primary education can have profound effects on the development and well-being of young children. It can manifest itself in exclusion, verbal and physical bullying and unequal treatment by teachers and peers. Children from ethnic minorities, from different religious backgrounds or with disabilities are especially vulnerable to this. In order for children to learn more about diversity through play, we developed a series of e-books.
The e-books include tips for education professionals to videos and books about discrimination and inclusion. And practical tips with books and games for students.
E-books are also available for lower, middle and upper grades.
Would you like to receive one or more e-books? Then send an email to preventie@bureaugelijkebehandeling.nl and we will send it to you free of charge.
These publications were completely revised by mid-2025.
