La desigualdad social en el contexto educativo del nivel inicial

Abstract

The present monographic work is entitled "Social Inequality in the Educational Context of the Initial Level." The objective of this monographic work is to identify the reproduction of social inequality within the educational context of children at the initial education level. This research was conducted using a qualitative approach with a descriptive-explanatory scope, employing bibliographic research to develop the two main categories of analysis: social inequality and educational inequality. The study concludes that social inequality remains prevalent and continues to directly influence the educational field. This particularly affects the learning processes of students from the most vulnerable contexts. Factors such as lack of resources, limited access to education, poor educational quality, precarious living conditions, and scarcity of opportunities directly impact students' self-esteem, motivation, and emotional well-being. These socioeconomic factors are also reflected in academic performance and school dropout rates among children facing greater adversity. Therefore, it is crucial to recognize that addressing social inequality in the educational context requires not only improving access and opportunities but also promoting inclusive policies that ensure equity and educational justice for less advantaged students.
