Inclusive Education involves finding ways to support all children to learn, so that they can contribute to society as productive and caring adults. According to UNICEF "Inclusive Education means all children in the same classroom, in the same schools. It means real learning opportunities for groups who have traditionally been excluded." As such, at school level teachers must be trained, buildings refurbished and students must receive accessible learning activities .
In order to achieve this systems must be in place, support must be give both on the inside as well as outside the school, there must be a cultural change, partnerships must be built and monitoring of the children's progress must be enforced.
The ethos and culture of a school is very important. A strong ethos must be created in order to successfully have Inclusive Education. The ethos of a school is what it feels like, the atmosphere experienced by children, parents and staff and is determined by values and beliefs. If this is not created. If the environment does not exhibit a good strong ethos, inclusive education will not be successful.
Planning and assessment is very crucial when it comes to inclusive education. Assessments inform where children are at, how they are progressing and in what ways you can assist the child in moving forward or even where there is a weakness.
