not sure if im just having a mental blank after studying for 4 hours straight but I just CCAANNOTT find in my brain answers to this easy question..

Give 5 examples of cultural differences which may need to be accommodated for and embedded in daily practise in the workplace



also need some confirmation that ive answered this correctly..
a. What is ‘cultural competence’ and ‘diversity’ as outlined in the relevant approved learning framework? (Please see EYLF Educators Guide or MTOP Educators Guide: Cultural Competence)

ive written ::


We are all culturally diverse. Cultural diversity is our individual differences within day to day life depending on our morals, opinions and attitudes. This affects our educating and decision making. Cultural competency is supported by principles such as:
1. Partnerships
2. Respect for diversity
3. High expectations and equity.
Cultural Competency applies with a knowledge of Being, Belonging and Becoming and gaining a positive attitude towards cultural differences around the world and in the classroom.

“Educators who are culturally competent respect multiple cultural ways of knowing, seeing and living, celebrate the benefits of diversity and have an ability to understand and honour differences”
