Egalitarianism and equity in education have been widely debated in recent decades, leading to the prominent use of the concept of equality in political, economic, and especially educational spheres. This concept is multifaceted, and we seek to establish a dialogue that complements the principles of equality and equity. We emphasize that equity should manifest in the process, while equality should be reflected in the outcomes. We believe that egalitarian rhetoric helps meet the expectations of families and students. However, this narrative does not eliminate existing disparities, and instead of a hierarchy of inequalities, there is a complementarity between them. The aim of this discussion is to facilitate the understanding of narratives related to equal opportunities in the educational field.
