multicultural classrooms
Ethnically varied schools
Multicultural classrooms are educational settings where students come from diverse cultural, ethnic, linguistic, or national backgrounds.
The term often appears in discussions of teaching methods that acknowledge and incorporate this diversity: Teachers in multicultural classrooms may draw on students' varied experiences.
The phrase implies both demographic reality and pedagogical approach—not just having diverse students, but adapting instruction accordingly.
