compensatory education  

Definición

  • Compensatory education programs in the United States are supplements to regular education programs and are designed to compensate for disadvantages experienced by children, especially those living in poverty. As Claude S. Fischer and his colleagues have noted, inequalities in the educational system have been brought about by “inequality by design” due to housing discrimination, zoning of neighborhoods, and isolating poor people and racial minorities in public housing projects.
