Abstract

This paper is based on some research projects about immigration and education in Spain where I have been working on. The objectives of this work are: 1). To show the linguistic diversity of the students at Andalusian school, due to the migratory phenomenon; and 2). To analyse the educational policies designed to manage the linguistic diversity in schools. The results –obtained by conducting questionaries, interviews and participant observation– indicate that, due to the increase of linguistic diversity in the last decade, some educational policies have been designed to manage the new linguistic and cultural situation, but also indicate that there are ‘different kinds of policies for different kinds of students’. As a conclusion of this paper, I make a critical approach of how the government is treating the arrivals of ‘new students’, and how the different languages have been treated, because some of them have been more recognized than others
