Discrimination at school based on language?

Question:
A researcher is looking for data on discrimination in education (school: elementary, secondary or postsecondary) based on language.  We note that various GSS surveys and the Public Service Employee Survey have questions on discrimination based on language linked to work (and even types of discrimination at work in the case of the GSS cycle 30) but not linked to school.  Is there anything that we are missing?

Answer:
We’ve received the following response from subject matter:

“It appears that at this time we do not have information of this sort.  However, C34 of the GSS will and will be starting collection in April with a scheduled release date of November 2020.”
