Strategies for success in multi-ethnic schools

published:  September 2001

What do we know about the characteristics of successful multi-ethnic schools?
For this TLA research summary we selected, appraised and summarised a study that sets out to describe characteristics of successful multi-ethnic schools. The strategies mainly highlight whole-school policies, but the authors have presented their study in an accessible and case-based way, which many teachers will find relevant to their daily practice.
