World Health OrganizationDisabilities is an umbrella term, covering
impairments, activity limitations, and participation restrictions.
Thus disability is a complex phenomenon, reflecting an interaction between features of a person’s body and features of the society in which he or she lives.

What inclusive practices might you use?
Speak with parents
Encourage and welcome
Be sensitive in your planning so that you include rather than exclude
Don’t think that the answer is just in resources
Every person is different – whatever their disability or health issue
Remember that standards (e.g. VELS) are made up by bureaucrats –children learn at their own pace

achieve their full potential?

Potential
How do I know what their potential is?
Do I have the right to decide?

Myth No. 1Probably the most widely-held myth about teaching students with a disability is the belief that a detailed knowledge of the child’s disability is needed before a teaching programme can be commenced. Teachers often say ‘But I know nothing about Down syndrome’ or ‘I haven’t studied cerebral palsy-how could I teach that child?

In AustraliaIn Australia, we know that boys from particular
postcodes (poor ones) are often diagnosed as having ADHD and subsequently medicated on the referral of the primary teacher.
And we know that the poor suffer more health issues (e.g. Indigenous Australians)

PedagogyPedagogy is the heart of the enterprise. It gives life to educational aims and values, lifts the curriculum from the printed page, mediates learning and knowing, engages, inspires and empowers learners – or sadly may fail to do so.
Alexander (2010, p. 307)
![Page 23: Inclusive Education Dr Julie White. As a teacher…. What do you expect you might you have to deal with?](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649e685503460f94b63caf/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
PedagogyPedagogy determines how teachers think and act. Pedagogy affects students’ lives and expectations. Pedagogy is the framework for discussions about teaching and the process by which we do our jobs as teachers. Pedagogy is a body of knowledge that defines us as professionals.
Anderson, P. M. (2005) ‘The Meaning of Pedagogy’, in Kincheloe, J. L. Classroom Teaching: An Introduction, New York, Peter Lang, pp. 53-69.

PedagogyPedagogy demands and constructs complex social relationships. Through exchange, pedagogy becomes productive, constituting the forms of knowing, the conditions for knowing, and the subjectivities of knowers. Pedagogy points to the agency that joins teaching and learning.

Your pedagogyAs a teacher, what are your values and beliefs in relation to inclusion and disability?
How will you enact your pedagogy?
Prompts
Social justice
Rights of individuals
Schools should sort out the students from strong to weak
This is not my problem
