Definition[edit | edit source]

Socio-educational segregation refers to the division or separation of individuals or groups based on their socioeconomic status and level of education. This segregation can manifest in various ways, such as unequal access to quality education, limited opportunities for social mobility, and a lack of resources and support for disadvantaged communities.

Socio-educational segregation can perpetuate cycles of poverty and inequality, as those with lower socioeconomic status and less access to education are often marginalized and excluded from opportunities for advancement. This can lead to a widening gap between the rich and poor, as well as reinforcing existing social hierarchies and inequalities.

Efforts to address socio-educational segregation may include initiatives to improve access to quality education for all individuals, support for disadvantaged communities, and policies aimed at reducing income inequality and promoting social mobility. By addressing these systemic barriers, society can work towards creating a more equitable and inclusive educational system that benefits all individuals and promotes social cohesion.
