Deficit and Asset-Based Models

Captions available

The idea

A deficit model blamed poor performance by children of colour on genetic, family or cultural deficits; asset-based models assume every child brings strengths.

In practice

A teacher building a lesson on the languages and traditions students bring from home.

Where people slip

Culturally responsive teaching and antibias education are described as approaches; summer programmes with small classes reduce achievement gaps.
