EDUCATION MANAGEMENT FOCUSING ON CULTURAL DIVERSITY IN THE SCHOOL COMMUNITY

Abstract

Cultural diversity in the school community is a phenomenon that reflects differences in ethnicity, language, religion, beliefs, and traditions, which influence students' lives and education. This diversity can have both positive and negative effects. On the positive side, it helps broaden perspectives and provides opportunities to learn acceptance and respect for differences. On the negative side, conflicts may arise due to misunderstandings or a lack of acceptance of diversity. Managing cultural diversity in the school community is therefore crucial in promoting learning and creating a positive environment within the school. This requires support from administrators, teachers, and educational staff to raise awareness and enhance social skills in students, enabling them to live together happily and harmoniously
