First Published in 2005. The phrase 'education of minorities' raises a variety of questions. As a World Yearbook theme it demands clarification. We are using the word 'minority' to refer not to relative numbers but to 'the condition of being inferior or subordinate'. This could be taken to include students with a variety of handicaps - physical, intellectual, socioeconomic, cultural; pupils with low literacy or language problems; and victims of race or sex discrimination. However, this book concentrates on the problems of students who are disadvantaged by differences of culture and language, especially ethnic minorities who do not possess the background, attributes and skills of the dominant group and are thus distanced from the sources of power and status in the country they inhabit.

The World Yearbook of Education was first published by the Evans Brothers in 1965 in association with the University of London Institute of Education and Teachers College, Columbia University. Since then it has become established as one of the most important forums for work in comparative education in the world. Each volume addresses a major issue in comparative education and includes contributions from a range of leading international scholars. Subjects covered include: The impact of IT on education Gender, race and class in education Higher education Special educational needs and inclusive education Educational management
