Equal opportunities in the context of education can be interpreted as ensuring equitable access to certain kinds of education (e.g. an academic track) or as equal opportunities to lead a fulfilling life regardless of the educational route followed (e.g. vocational or academic).

Tappel, Anna P. M.; Poortman, Cindy Louise; Schildkamp, Kim; Visscher, Adrie J. – Journal of Professional Capital and Community, 2023
Purpose: Schools struggle with sustaining their educational innovations (Cohen and Mehta, 2017; Askell-Williams and Koh, 2020) and may benefit from concrete and practical guidance (Askell-Williams and Koh, 2020).
