Why is it important?

The paper examines the implications of teacher diversity in a faith-centered school, as students perceive it. The paper shows how such disparities may ultimately motivate students to engage in social perspective taking and in learning, help them in formulating their own views, and interacting with different diverse spheres of cultural affiliations. Such findings could help administrators and policy makers in establishing faith schools that fulfill the children's right to adaptable education.
