REACTION:

Inclusive education is concerned with the education and accommodation of ALL children in society,
regardless of their physical, intellectual, social, or linguistic deficits. Inclusion should also include
children from disadvantaged groups, of all races and cultures as well as the gifted and the disabled
(UNESCO, 2003). Inclusion tries to reduce exclusion within the education system by tackling, responding
to and meeting the different needs of all learners (Booth, 1996). It involves changing the education
system so that it can accommodate the unique styles and way of learning of each learner and ensure
that there is quality education for all through the use of proper resources, suitable curricula,
appropriate…show more content…

Inclusive education also recognises that learning occurs both at home and in the community and
therefore the support of parents, family and the community is vital (Department of Education, 2001).
Truly inclusive schools understand the uniqueness of every child, that all children can learn and that all
children have different gifts, strengths learning styles and needs. These schools then provide the
appropriate means and support through which these needs can be met (UNESO, 2003) The necessity for
making schools and classrooms inclusive in South Africa Inclusion has become a necessity in any
country.Special education is instruction designed to meet the individual needs of children with
disabilities. This is done at no cost to the parents. Special education may include individualized
instruction in the classroom, at home, in hosptials or medical instutions, or in other environments.Every
child that participates in special education receives instruction designed:to meet their individual needs
(that result from having a disability).to help the child learn the information and skills that other children
at the school are learning.1The educational system in the United States may be different than that of
your country of origin. Children who have a disability that affects their education, such as a learning
disability that makes it difficult for them to read, comprehend, or write, can receive special education
that consists of instruction and individualized help to support the learning of the child. Students with
disabilities are protected by federal laws that assure they will receive a free and appropriate public
education; it is the obligation of public schools to give students this special help.
