The educational implications of cultural pluralism attracted a good
deal of attention in Western societies in the 1970s and 1980s, on
the grounds of equality and human rights, maximising national
talent, and maintaining social cohesion. Maurice Craft and the
international contributors to this book highlight the potential of
teacher education, and in this wide-ranging analytical review for
its key role in providing for ethnic minority children, in respect
of access and achievements, and also for all children to acquire
informed and tolerant attitudes. This book makes an important
contribution to a small but growing literature, concentrating on
initial rather than in-service teacher education, and it brings
together papers from experienced specialists from eleven countries
worldwide: Australia, Britain, Canada, Israel, Malaysia, Northern
Ireland, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, The Netherlands and the USA.
The papers are concerned with the needs both of diverse classrooms
and diverse societies, and also consider general principles and
comparative perspectives. Of interest to the specialist and
non-specialist alike, Teacher Education in Plural Societies: An
International Review deals with an important and timely issue - how
best to prepare teachers to meet the needs of both minority - and
majority - culture pupils who are growing up in plural societies.
