Activity 1.5 Creating an Inclusive ethos and culture

1. Expanding the curriculum beyond Academics and celebrating their achievements

This is an important factor as it allows students to feel appreciated and wanted, it helps build their self esteem and gives them a sense of belonging. it allows them to be able to participate with their peers while doing something they enjoy. It also builds positive attitudes among peers. Celebrating their achievement also help with achieving some of theses goals. It not only fosters positive attitudes among staff and students but is always an opportunity to involve the community and stakeholders in celebrating the students and bring awareness to how inclusion can work.

2. Ongoing Professional development and Teacher support

Another key factor, many teachers claim that they are not equipped to help students with disabilities. Targeting each school according to their strengths and weaknesses and providing tailored professional development goals, while providing mentorship and ongoing support for teachers both within the staff and outside the staff can foster a positive attitude.
