What is inclusive education?

Inclusive education makes sure that every child in a classroom, regardless of their abilities or where they come from, feels like they belong and is appreciated. It gives everyone an equal opportunity to have a thriving learning journey.

Imagine a classroom where students, whether they have disabilities or not, learn side by side. The teacher is there to support everyone, adapting the seating arrangements, using different ways of teaching, and using technology to help all students. This is what inclusive education looks like in a classroom.

What does diversity mean?

Diversity is all the ways in which people differ from each other. The difference could be on the basis of where they are from, what their gender is, if they are young or old, or what their beliefs and abilities are.
Diversity and inclusion often go hand in hand. As a single idea, diversity and inclusion represent recognizing and valuing the differences that people bring with them. But what does diversity mean exactly? It is the understanding that everyone is unique, and bringing these unique perspectives together improves a community. Diversity groups in schools, workplaces, or communities benefit from many experiences.

Understanding diversity and inclusion

Diversity and inclusion are like buddies, but they’re not twins. The idea of diversity talks about the ways people are different, while that of inclusion makes sure everyone, no matter how different, feels valued, has the same opportunities, and can join in just the same. Imagine it like this: diversity is having a variety of people around, and inclusion is making sure everyone in that group feels welcome and can share their part equally.
