Multiculturalism in the present context is a global issue in education. It has not yet been materialized into the education system in Nepal. The education system of a country should prepare students to function in today’s multicultural society. In this regards, this paper focuses on the issues of the management of multicultural classes, and the role of ICT-integrated pedagogy to manage such a classroom context. It also discusses the context, and experiences of teachers that can bring the multicultural classroom situation into the right track. For this purpose, I apply narrative inquiry of two mathematics teachers (one male and one female) of University Campus Kirtipur with more than seven-year experience. In-depth interview, related to their experiences and practices in multicultural mathematics classes, was conducted and found that they face problems to teach students in a multicultural classes such as language problem, content problem, and level of understanding. There are two types of multiculturalism in our classes they are critical multiculturalism, and Liberal multiculturalism. The management of multiculturalism is a great challenge for teachers. Although teachers are less familiar with the management of multicultural class, they try to manage such types of diversity by supporting their students personally through ICT-integrated pedagogy. The finding of the study shows that ICT-integrated pedagogy is the best strategy to manage multicultural classes by respecting students’ personal feelings.

Values are like seeds that sprout, become saplings, grow into trees and spread their branches all around. To be able to think right, to feel the right kind of emotions and to act in the desirable manner are the prime phases of personality development. Building up of values system starts with the individual, moves on to the family and community, reorienting systems, structures and institutions, spreading throughout the land and ultimately embracing the planet as a whole. The culture of inclusivity is particularly relevant and important in the context of our society, nation and making education a right for all children.

Despite the recent enactment of the Zimbabwean Constitution which provides for the right to basic education, complaints, reminiscent of a failed basic education system, have marred the education system in Zimbabwe. Notwithstanding glaring violations of the right to basic education by the government, no person has taken the government to court for failure to comply with its section 75(1)(a) constitutional obligations, and neither has the government conceded any failures or wrongdoings. Two ultimate questions arise: Does the state know what compliance with section 75(1)(a) entails? And do the citizens know the scope and content of their rights as provided for by section 75(1)(a) of the Constitution of Zimbabwe? Whilst it is progressive that the Education Act of Zimbabwe as amended in 2020 has addressed some aspects relating to section 75(1)(a) of the Constitution, it has still not provided an international law compliant scope and content of the right to basic education neither have any clarifications been provided by the courts. Using an international law approach, this article suggests what the scope and content of section 75(1)(a) might be.
