Can you begin a sentence with 'rather'?

E.g. In inclusive environments differences are not shunned or feared. Rather they are accepted and celebrated.

Or
It does not mean treating every child the same. It rather means that the curriculum should cater to every child's needs.
Do these two sentences sound natural?

If you want those, use the second and use a semicolon in the first; however, I think revision is in order: In inclusive environments , differences are not shunned or feared but accepted and celebrated. It does not mean treating every child the same but ensuring that the curriculum caters to every child's needs.
