Definition[edit | edit source]

Interschool segregation refers to the separation of students based on race, class, or other demographic factors across different schools. This can occur through policies or practices that result in disparities in the quality of education and resources available to students attending different schools. Interschool segregation can perpetuate inequality and impact the academic and social outcomes of students. It is often a reflection of existing societal inequalities and can contribute to the reproduction of social hierarchies. Efforts to address interschool segregation often focus on implementing equitable educational policies and practices, increasing access to resources, and promoting diversity and inclusion in schools.
