Racial Inequality and Education Systems: A Cross-National Examination of Educational Disparities

Abstract

Author(s): Tessa Der Scheer*

Racial inequality remains a persistent issue in education systems worldwide, with profound consequences for both individuals and societies. This study presents a cross-national examination of racial disparities in education, analyzing how different countries approach the issue of racial inequality and the effectiveness of policies designed to address it. Through a comparative lens, the paper examines the impact of race on educational attainment, access to resources, and student outcomes in diverse national contexts, including the United States, South Africa, Brazil, and the United Kingdom. By exploring historical legacies, societal structures, and educational policies, this research sheds light on the complex relationship between race and education, offering recommendations for policies that could foster more equitable education systems globally. The findings highlight the persistent nature of racial inequality in education and call for urgent reforms to address these disparities at both local and international levels.
