Inclusive ethos

It's difficult to pick only two features effective to creating an ethos or culture of inclusivity because they all seem intertwined with one another. We can look at:

-What happens inside the school - positive teacher attitudes (towards teaching and learning), support from administration (policies, resources), how special needs students are treated by their peers (modelled, encouraged and monitored by teachers).

-What happens outside the school - effective home-school relationships, established school-community relationships, education/sensitization efforts, and school partnerships with relevant organizations/expert personnel.

Schools can attempt to work on these in small steps to create a holistic approach to effective inclusion.
