Concept information
Preferred term
creating identity-safe school environments
Definition
- Identity-safe classrooms are those that validate students' experiences, backgrounds, and identities to promote academic and social success for all students. These classrooms are free from negative relationships, cues, and teaching practices that implicitly, or explicitly, link students' identities (e.g., race, gender, religion) to academic performance.
