    The document describes two types of education for language minority children: segregationist education, which uses only the minority language in the classroom with the aim of maintaining apartheid; and transitional education, which transitions children from instruction in their minority home language to the majority language over time, with the ultimate goal of assimilation. Transitional education allows initial instruction in the home language but switches to mostly the majority language within 2-6 years.
