For example, a deformed or otherwise physically unsual student is more likely to experience being bullied and being inable to preform certain tasks, mentally defficient or incapeble students often also suffer the same results, and both physically and psycologically unusual students suffer form these things when working in a relatively or unreasonably unhelpful environment, as teachers, parents, and students alike can make it very difficult for them to progress at a steady pase in life.

It's important to include both physical and psychological differences as they both have something to say on the matter. Even though skill, ability, and knowledge usually matter a lot more than physical differences, it still can't be excluded as it really depends on what people are capable of when doing something. For example, a person with significantly weaker eyesight than normal can't be a delivery driver, for example. A builder can't be paralyzed and a dancer can't have an amputated leg and do the same as a dancer who has both. Physical and psychological differences are both important in order to obtain a good career.
