Paramagnetic materials are attracted by external magnetic fields whereas diamagnetic materials are repelled by that magnetic field.

Paramagnetic materials have at least one unpaired electron, but diamagnetic materials have all their electrons paired.

Diamagnetic materials are repelled by a magnetic field; an applied magnetic field creates an induced magnetic field in them in the opposite direction, causing a repulsive force.

In contrast, paramagnetic and ferromagnetic materials are attracted by a magnetic field.
