M.Ed. (Multiculturalism and Education) / It appears that much research has been done in the past on parent education, but with the emphasis on the white community. As a result of the present movement in the RSA towards multicultural education, the need for parent education in all population and ethnic groups has been increased. This area of study has been grossly neglected up to now. Due to the problematic nature of the above-mentioned situation, this study is aimed at compiling guidelines for an education program for parents of behaviorally disturbed children in the multicultural school. An investigation into the characteristics of the behaviorally disturbed child was attempted by means of a study of literature. Existing parent education programs were also studied and evaluated. Insights derived from this study were then adapted to create a set of general and a set of specific guidelines for and education program for parents of behaviorally disturbed children in the multicultural school.
