摘要：One cannot remain indifferent to the problem of inequality in education. And not just because so much attention in public policy is devoted to the issues of equal opportunities. A more important reason is an elementary sense of justice,deeply rooted in human nature. It makes us sensitive to different kinds of exclusion,such as barriers to learning opportunities in the case of children from disadvantaged backgrounds. However,writing about inequality is a bit risky. It interferes with the picture of the world in which we tend to believe in order to feel comfortable.
