In a democratic society, teachers face challenges with regard to teaching culturally diverse and responsive learners in varied socioeconomic contexts. Many teachers in South African schools feel they have not been adequately trained to work in multicultural school environments, and therefore lack the skill and expertise required for dealing with social justice and sensitive, moral or hegemonic social issues in the curriculum. Societal issues in the curriculum explores problems and trends in the South African context that have the potential to influence the implementation, planning and design of the curriculum at micro level, and examines how they emerge from everyday experiences.
