Situation in which children from ethnic
minority groups perform less well than they
should because of a foreign or hostile
environment. The Swann Report 1986 found that
this was the case in British schools and
recommended methods of combating racial
disadvantage, and local authorities are
increasingly adopting anti-racist policies
and attempting to give their curricula a
multi-cultural dimension.
