Inclusive
education is a rights-based approach to education that strives to ensure that
all students, regardless of their abilities, disabilities, backgrounds,
learning styles, or any other differences, are educated together in mainstream
classrooms alongside their peers. It involves transforming the education system
to remove barriers and adapt to the diverse needs of all learners.
The
ultimate goal of inclusive education is to create a more just and equitable
society by fostering a sense of belonging, acceptance, and mutual respect among
all individuals. More specifically, the goals of inclusive education can be
summarized as:
•
Equal Educational Opportunities:
To ensure that all students have access to high-quality education that meets
their individual needs.
•
Social Inclusion: To promote
social interaction, friendship, and acceptance among students with and without
disabilities.
•
Academic Success: To help all
students achieve their full academic potential through differentiated
instruction, accommodations, and supports.
•
Personal Growth: To foster
self-esteem, independence, and confidence in all students, enabling them to
become active and engaged members of society.
•
Preparation for Life: To equip all
students with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in further
education, employment, and independent living.
•
Reduce Prejudice and Discrimination:
By creating a welcoming and accepting environment, inclusive education seeks to
challenge and break down societal prejudices and stereotypes.
To
do the aforementioned, teachers of special need education need to be trained as
professionals of the field. The essence of training for special needs education
(SNE) lies in equipping educators and related professionals with the knowledge,
skills, attitudes, and values necessary to effectively support the learning,
development, and well-being of students with diverse learning needs. It goes
beyond simply understanding different disabilities and delves into pedagogical
approaches, assessment techniques, and collaborative strategies that promote
inclusive and equitable learning environments.
