Abstract
This chapter engages with ethical education (EE) and its relationship with social justice education (SJE). This is followed by a critical exploration of racism and its various manifestations. Drawing on pedagogies from EE, this chapter outlines how educators can help children to develop positive attitudes towards difference and to become more ethical, rigorous and critical in their thinking, decision-making and actions. It concludes with exemplars that employ EE pedagogies to explore issues of difference, racial-ethnic stereotyping, individual and institutional racism.
