The paper discusses the role of teachers in the inclusion of migrant students and provides some suggestions for the active engagement of teachers in developing intercultural education, with examples from Slovenia. To support teachers who develop intercultural competence among all students, it is important to include concrete learning objectives in the syllabuses, in the framework of which teachers will be able to teach about social diversity. It will also be necessary to introduce content about multiethnic, multilingual, and multireligious society into the academic programmes, so that (future) teachers are more prepared for a diverse school environment and the development of an intercultural society.
It is investigational as in a oriented of the modern system of education to activity of personality, independence in the choice of subjects and time of mastering of information. It is marked that passing to the new paradigm of education with the dominant of self-education, coincides with the individual necessities of people and takes place at combination of institutional education and self-education. The self-education of personality is considered as the sociocultural phenomenon, that is related not only to education but also with development of society on the whole.
In this article, I explore how the beliefs of preschool teachers that equality is the norm in their classrooms shape play periods in ways that may work to disadvantage girls. I argue that equality discourses mask the gender power children must negotiate in their play and that this leaves girls with fewer choices when they are accessing the play environment. With research grounded in fieldwork carried out in four public schools in a Canadian metropolis, I illustrate how liberal notions of equality reinforced the traditional gender binary in children's play. Moreover, drawing on the work of Jane Roland Martin, I show that liberal understandings of equality work to sustain a male-centered education for all students in preschool. To explore ways to attend to such gender inequalities, I turn to Nel Noddings's concept of an ethics of care and point to the need to challenge the gender binary in early learning.

During the 2005 legislative session, the General Assembly continued funding for technical assistance, professional development and recognitions for schools achieving at high levels. The General Assembly also supported improvements in the teaching of reading and increased the base student cost funding.
It is fairly clear that higher education, among other things, works a considerable income redistribution. In general, this redistribution is from the poor to those people who would be very well off even without education. The higher educational system increases the degree of income differentia tion in the society. People who have considerable natural talent, who would therefore have high incomes in any event, are given higher incomes at the expense of the taxpayer. There is a secondary aspect of income redistribution related to the higher educational system. It has been argued that the children of upper class parents gain more than the children of poor parents and that this difference is greater than the difference between the taxes paid to support education by these two groups. It is not certain that this is so; in any event, the question of the wealth of the parents of the students who receive the taxpayer's gift seems less important than the actual potential lifetime earnings of the recipients. Of course, it is possible to offset the regressive nature of the higher edu cational system by progressive measures in other parts of gov ernment; however, it would seem simpler to convert the higher educational system to one which provides less in the way of benefits for the rich at the expense of the poor.

The paper makes a comparative study on Public Schools and Government Schools in the contemporary social and cultural scenario with the importance of the parental care and how they are maintained by private owners and government officials respectively. The paper also discusses the role and responsibility of the important individuals – the father, the mother and the teacher – towards the spiritual and moral development of their children. Public schools, which are called 'Private schools' in our country, are symbols of modern feudalism. Public schools can also be described as & lsquo; private factories'. Teachers in private schools and colleges are under compulsion to show results to managements. Teachers campaign for admissions. When a teacher fails to secure admission, his job or his salary is under threat. There are popular Public (Private) schools but unfortunately there is no such popular government school. Under these circumstances, the question arises is how to create a good government teacher.
