Document Summary

Before entering teachers college, issues of inclusivity in the classroom never really stood out to the extent that they do now. As far as i understood, it was all a part of our education system and things were working well. Educators have created a stigma that children who have exceptionalities are more difficult to teach, or alternatively, underestimate them by providing lower expectations than necessary. Through this course and my placement, it has become glaringly apparent that the current system is not effectively helping those who do not fit in the realm of being regular" students. True inclusivity in education should entail the equality of opportunity and acceptance of differences, including ethnic, physical, social, cultural, intellectual, sensory, and gender diversity. I thoroughly enjoyed the group presentations as it forced us to become an expert on a specific topic, and the issue of streaming in education is not one which i was previously aware of.
