Inclusive education is not a new concept, but rather one that has been consistently improved upon over time based on feedback from teachers, parents and students.

April 26, 2023September 26, 2023 - by Mary Lebowitz

Inclusive education is a way of teaching that allows all students to learn in an environment where they can feel comfortable, included and important. It allows special needs children to learn side-by-side with their peers. The benefits of inclusive education include better results, higher levels of motivation, improved social skills and reduced anti-social behaviour. Children who are taught in an inclusive environment are more likely to attend university and hold down well paid jobs in the future. There is a greater chance that children will be able to return home after school.
