Throughout the lesson students will evaluate the pros and cons of both of these ideas (equality of opportunity vs using equity to reach equality of outcome). This lesson is best suited to KS4.
The lesson includes card sorts, literacy-based tasks, analysis tasks, clip and discussion tasks and much more.

Students will explore why this is, how the mind works and how stereotypes evolved originally to help us avoid threats, but can be detrimental when applied to societal groups in the modern world. Best suited to KS3.
