Summary/Abstract: The paper highlights free real-life instances of discrimination against children in the pre-school and elementary school system in Romania that are more than twenty years apart. The paper then briefly surveys the official EU perspective on the fight against discrimination in education, alongside the current EU vision for an inclusive education. The final section focuses on the practice of fighting discrimination in the Romanian schooling system, thereby emphasizing the unbridged gap yet between the humanistic vision of inclusiveness, learner diversity and mutual enrichment on the one hand and the current inadequate materialization of inclusive educational policies in Romania on the other. Suggestions for addressing the problem conclude the paper
