Diversity is understood as the differences that students present in school learning, differences in terms of aptitudes, interests, motivations, abilities, maturation rates, learning styles, previous experiences and knowledge, social and cultural environments, etc. These aspects make up student typologies and profiles that should largely determine educational planning and action.

Psychologists, for all educational stages, and associated professionals in both the educational and socio-health fields need to know how to recognize these students and identify their needs and have the knowledge and tools to intervene at a personal, socio-familial and above all Psychological level.
