The principle of "Inclusion tresses, among other concepts, that all members accept their fair share of responsibility for all children, including those with disabilities" (Dettmer, Thurston, & Dyck, 2005, p. 40). This shared responsibility and giftedness is facilitated through "consultation theory," which employs a team approach to successful inclusion of students with disabilities within mainstream education.

whether or not full inclusion should be practiced in all schools. There are various reasons why people are for or against full inclusion.

Abstract This assignment will give an insight into what inclusion education is, and the way in which a target school relates inclusion to their students. It will focus upon Asperger 's within the school, and show how Asperger 's is treated to ensure inclusion is met. The assignment will argue the policies set in place and, with the literature review, will source findings and compare them with the schools ethos.

There are pros and cons to inclusion education. Those who support inclusion education point to the benefits which result from putting students with disabilities into general classrooms with other children who do not have a disability.

Introduction Attitudes to inclusion play a pivotal role in the success of inclusion strategies in the classroom (Graham & Spandaguo, 2011; Morin, Rivard, Crocker, Boursier & Caron, 2013). Successful inclusion incorporates the student’s ecological context including peers, family, school staff and the broader community (Foreman & Arthur-Kelly, 2014).

The following reflection will highlight the merits of implementing the inclusion improvement plan, some of the issues that impact on educators’ capacity to provide an inclusive care environment and how can the educators manage the competing demands of inclusion of children with additional needs, with the demands of providing an inclusive environment for all children. The inclusion improvement plan for Joshua caters to his special needs to a large extent. For example, Joshua
My Philosophical Statement of Inclusion The notion of inclusion is progressively being accepted as a vital method of learning in our growing school systems. I believe that every student, those with and without exceptionalities, have the right to be included in a general education classroom.
