Date Submitted : 25-Jun-2009
Themes : children, education, nesb communities, school suspension
In order to understand the impact of suspensions on NESB Parents we need to look at a number of broader and more complex issues. The most significant of these relates to the phenomena of migration. This in itself gives rise to long term social disruption and impacts on individuals and communities in a variety of ways throughout the period of settlement, attainment of proficiency in language of host country, relocation, and overall orientation to a new set of social, cultural, political and quite often, economic systems.
