Areas of Discrimination
Unequal access to educational resources
· This is pronounced in black schools where they don’t have advanced courses and the physical facilities could also be wanting. This is due to the tight budgets that the school has.
· Lack of professional teachers and support staff and this is also pronounced in Latinos and Black American’s schools.
· Inadequate physical space in the school. Schools with most Latinos and African American students invest less in physical spaces in the school.
· Inadequate instructional resources such as books, also pronounced in schools with most Latinos and Black Americans.
· Lack of access to rigorous framework, and adequate co-curricular activities in schools with most Latino and black American students.
· Co-curricular activities which are rolled on based on the level of competency of the student. This is outright discriminatory because well-taught students have great potential.
·
The Act provides that the funding to the schools should not be allocated based on race, colour, sex or any other attribute that can be discriminatory. However, most of the schools attended by Latinos and African Americans have a challenge because of the underdevelopment and overpopulation of the school. There is a very thin line between discrimination based on race and the need that these schools have.
