• In Event: Equitable Educational Policies for Immigrant, Refugee, and English Learner Students

Abstract

This paper examines the status of immigrant students in the Great Britain public schools. The Framework of Critical Race Theory (CRT) and Culturally Relevant Education (CRE) is being used for the PISA 2018 dataset to test the hypotheses of how welcoming the public schools are to immigrant students in Great Britain. The researchers have used Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) to test the Model fit and reliability for the tested model. The study provides insights about the current situations of the public schools for future policy changes.
