Another example of diversity in a setting were you have children of different culture, race or religion etc, is where by you teach and encourage the children to respect and embrace differences from other people in a positive way regardless of how they look or talk, and you as a practitioner need to respect the children and their families as well of the different backgrounds.
Equality – in the workplace it takes on the same meaning as it does in your everyday life.

The differences could go on because of different judgemental factors such as not being worthy as their counterparts in the workplace.
Inclusion – the term ‘inclusion’ means the act of including one another and no one is treat differently. Inclusion values diversity meaning no will be left out
