Abstract
Extract 7.1 below is from a participatory group interview with children of ten to 12 years of age. This interview was part of my PhD research project, which explored how students educated at primary level in Iran make sense of intercultural relationships. Through understanding their current levels of awareness I am also investigating the potential for creating opportunities for intercultural learning. The interview participants in this school were mainly Iranians with dual nationalities who spent parts of their lives in another country. The interview took place in a private international school where the medium of education was English (for most students in this school, English was their strong second language). Most of my other interviews were conducted in Persian but this one was conducted in English.
