Why is an understanding of school culture important to school improvement for multicultural education?

What will be an ideal response?


Ans: For example, students whose cultural identities do not match those of students or teachers representing the general norm often feel alienated and devalued as they go through the educational system; teachers in a school may have different ideas about diversity and school improvement; and an understanding of the values, norms, and beliefs inherent to a school's culture is important to supporting new initiatives, such as multicultural education.
