mattharding007 20:04

@jennah1000 99% of the time I'd say 'yes' - but there's definitely a

place for Special Schools. Despite government thinking...

#ukedchat

dailydenouement 20:04 I'm excited to hear how people practically promote inclusion in

their classrooms. Is it all about differentiation? #ukedchat

MrJLight 20:05

Still to often inclusion focuses on the lower achievers. All children

need support at different times to be included in some way

#ukedchat

EmathsUK 20:05#ukedchat far too often "inclusion" means 30 kids losing out to

accommodate 1. Inclusion very often excluding

mikeatedji 20:05

@davidhunter #ukedchat Not in my opinion because they are

helping individuals to overcome barriers to enable them to

achieve...

deerwood 20:05@davidhunter not necessarily from rest of class but maybe from

the teacher? #ukedchat

behaviour problems held other kids back. Inclusion costs life
