These 5 include: when the government breaks down or collapses; a minority group becomes geographically isolated within a large ethnic community; the political balance of power shifts from one group to…

M1: Education & Social Class Social class, more times than not, puts us into a group of people who share similar circumstances of wealth and power. Education factors into issues of wealth and power in complicated ways, and our location in a particular social class often shapes our expectations for schooling, its importance, and its potential for getting us to our goals for personal and professional success. Social class creates a divide in the education system and that divide affects the…

Berns (2013), states that peer groups have their own subcultures and depending on the values, motives, attitudes and patterns of behaviour they display they can contribute to bullying. Berns (2013) and Swearer et al. (2014) identified that children crave social acceptance, companionship and the desire to have a social identity and for that reason may partake in bullying behaviour.

The plan presented by the agency was both comprehensive and thoughtful, regarding the needs of all parties concerned including the company, its majority and minority work groups.
