INCLUSION
DO YOU KNOW INCLUSION?
THE EVOLUTION OF INCLUSION
WAY TO INCLUSIVE EDUCATION
MEANS OF INCLUSIVE EDUCATION
• Inclusive education refers to an
education
system
that
accommodates
all
children
regardless
of
their
physical,
intellectual,
social,
emotional,
linguistic or other conditions.
Means of Inclusive Education for CWSN
“Inclusive Education implies that children

and youth with special educational needs
should be included in the educational
arrangements made for the majority of
children….
Inclusive
Schools
must
recognize and respond to the diverse needs
of students, accommodation of both
different styles and rates of learning and
ensuring quality education to all through
appropriate
curricula,
organizational
arrangements,
teaching
strategies,
resources use and partnerships with their
communities.”

(UNESCO - Salamanca Statement,1994)
Rational for Inclusive Education
for CWSN

• Education of CWSN is more than
100 years old but the present
service delivery system have not
even covered 5% of the total
population of CWSN.
• When more than 90% of CWSN are
found in the rural areas, majority of
the Special School Integrated
Education and Inclusive Education
Program are located in the
Cities/Urban areas.
Rational for Inclusive Education
for CWSN

• Due to lack of sensitivity of the
general education to the needs
of CWSN, even the mild and
moderate
cases
are
not
attending schools
