Social Policy in Schools: A teacher sees first-hand how economic situations can affect a student's well-being and performance. A student from a low-income family may be less likely to participate in extracurricular activities, and may have poorer grades than a fellow student from a higher- income family. As an advocate of student success, it is a teacher's responsibility to do what he can to improve conditions, whether by raising concerns to the principal, speaking to parents coordinating school programs, or participating in social activism in his community. Social Education: It is not enough for a teacher to be aware of social justice issues; they should discuss these issues with their students. Timely domestic and international topics including the inequitable distribution of wealth and power, marginalized populations, gender and social inequality, the environment, and social services, should be talked about in a safe and openminded environment. These discussions will promote tolerance and unbiased thinking in students.
