Accepting and including others
People of different backgrounds bring new information, ideas and viewpoints that help us understand ourselves and others.
Take a minute to think about your classmates. Everyone is unique, with their own special strengths, abilities, interests and ideas. Your classmates might be of different nationalities, races and genders and have different religious beliefs.
It's important to learn more about kids who are different from you so you can build a safe and inclusive learning space.
- Everyone deserves to learn in a safe and supportive space
- Kids can be different in lots of different ways
- Some kids need special support
- You can find lots of help if you feel you're not accepted and included
