On October 1st 2010, the Equality Act came into force. This consolidated and strengthened the previous equality laws. This act prevents children and their families from being discriminated, victimised or harassed because of their age, sex, race, religion or disability.

Although a school is not expected to make adjustments that are not reasonable, they are expected to make general adjustments, reasonably planned within the school’s approach to planning for SEN children. The Equality Act 2010 outlines four definitions of discrimination, direct discrimination, indirect discrimination, discrimination arising from a disability and harassment and victimisation. This allows school settings to have clearer expectations and implement them. The Equality Act 2010 and the Discrimination Disability Act (DDA) (2005) both aim to ensure each and every child has access to a broad and balanced academic and social curriculum.

I am gradually beginning to recognize the implications of having a child with a disability included in a regular classroom – for the benefit of the child and for the other children. However, there are times when I do find it challenging to have a child who is continuously looking for attention by misbehaving, disturbing at circle time, taking off his shirt, making faces, lying down – and be all by myself with the 12 children. I attempt to overlook the behavior, try varieties kinds of presenting the circle time, observing the child cautiously what his interests are.
