Activity 1.2 What makes an inclusive school?

1. Inclusion in the education system means that students with disabilities should be integrated into a regular classroom. This will allow all students to have access to an appropriate education no matter what disability they may have.

In an inclusive classroom, teachers should encourage active learning and use the child's interest as a teaching tool, so that he or she may feel a sense of belongingness and lastly teacher should be mindful when grading any assessment in an inclusive classroom.

2. What is Soft Skill?
Soft skills means the things we do not see rather than the physical things around us example teacher's attitude.


3.What I would like to see in an inclusive school are
  •  Both Administration and teachers welcoming every student in the school and seeking advice from each other to facilitate inclusion.
  • Modification of school buildings to facilitate children with disabilities examples ramps and adapted washrooms.

Great contribution here. I would like to add:

Inclusion in Education must include equity, equality and access to quality education. The learner must be the center of all discussions and decisions being made. It must involve commitment to education, staff willing to go the extra distance in order to deliver quality education every time. Continuous training at every level is also crucial.

Additionally, support systems from government organizations, NGO's and other important stakeholders are necessary to building an inclusive learning community.
