Here at Berkeley’s School of Education, we’re challenging and changing the way people think about education.
Our research, teaching, and practice approaches support a bold vision of public education that has as its goal equity, inclusion and belonging at all levels – classroom, school, community, district, state, national, and global – and that positively impacts personal growth and social transformation.
