Marginalized Groups in Education

Child Laborers

• Existing laws protect children's rights, including their right to education and freedom from exploitation.

Indigenous People

• Few indigenous children interact with common students, citing differences and discrimination as barriers.
• They may experience difficulties in adopting school culture and require special support.

Abused Children

• Abuse affects their behavior and performance, as proper treatment is denied to them.
• Abused children require extra attention and guidance in school, as fear and anxiety are often developed in them.

Refugees/Displaced Children

• These children are forced to flee their homes or countries due to war and violence.
• Displacement affects their education and well-being, requiring special support and accommodations.
