4.10 Bringing it all together
This course provided me with an in depth understanding of what it takes and what must be done to create an inclusive school. It has really made me reflect on my own practice and has given me various strategies, examples, resources /tools which I can adapt and utilize in my context. I have gain an understanding of how to work along with all stakeholders within and outside of the learning organisation. Two things I will take away from this course into my practice is:
1. Continuing to ensure that I have a postive attitude in working along as a team with all stakeholders within and outside of learning organisation who all contribute to inclusivity. I will continue to work collaboratively , to ensure that all learners are welcomed, supported and engaged actively in the teaching and learning process where diversity is valued and their needs are supported through curriculum delivery, how the learning environment is organized, resources, teaching methods and strategies, communication with families, caregivers , and all stakeholders.
2. Another aspect the course I will take into my practice is how to create individualized education plans for learners with special needs and disabilities assessing , monitoring progress and providing support that will meet their individual needs.
In addition to the two things mentioned I will like to add the various strategies for managing behaviour, incorporating the buddy system, as well as working on creating a resource room. I also appreciate the various key resources that are available for us as educators to adapt to our own context and utilize in practice.
