I’ve had this experience when I worked as a Teaching Assistant. My presence can limit the child I’m supporting. Sometimes the child tells me that he / she can manage so sometimes I move away and hover around other children. I sometimes do whole class support and help to teach whole class on some topics that I’m asked to do. I also do sample responses of work given to the class and present my work to give them another point of view. They respond favourable to my presentation most of the times.

Amazing video. It must be watched by teachers and Professors to understand how they should deal with students with special needs.

In other words we are creating a false narrative where everyone with Down Syndrome is going to graduating college, that like saying everyone who is born with half legs is going to get into the military . We hope they do, but we they face challenges. This is why when someone who graduates college with down syndrome or without legs is put in the news. INCLUSION IS NOT INCLUSIVE, ITS MODIFIED PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT AND HOLD THEM LESS THEN WE GRADE OTHER STUDENTS

It is currently being taught in both primary and secondary education degrees in Queensland, with a whole unit dedicated to helping understand inclusion and how we can work to achieve this in classrooms in the future. It’s is also being taught to those who have already finished their degrees through Perosnal Development workshops in many schools.

I hope it works out for you. I also wanna say how lucky that student is to have someone like you advocating for them! Good luck!!

@ftenzer Not necessarily? It totally depends on the context. What do you mean by " they used to be disruptive to class "? Did they chat lots and distract others? Did they give the teachers back chat? Or did they threaten and physically assault students/teachers? These kinds of things matter massively and will impact each case differently!! How has the student proved that they are no longer disruptive to that class? The teacher has a responsibility to every student they teach. Has the rest of the class benefitted from the absence of the disruptive student? Has the disruptive student improved precisely because they were removed from that class? Is the school/teachers consistent with their treatment of students who break the rules etc? There are so many variables/factors to consider. Yes you're perfectly correct in saying that it's important to recognise when someone tries/succeeds in bettering themselves after taking accountability/responsibility for their actions however I'm not convinced that celebrating/rewarding them so highly for doing so is necessary? That should just be expected as a bare minimum! They must also learn consequences for their actions.

@@graemejack9040 By disrupting the class, I mean that the child or teenager did not threaten other students, teachers, or any other staff members with scissors and did not do any other acts of violence, instead, what the child or teenager did was yell, scream, and lost his/her temper in the classroom but, it is not a just cause to place the child or teenager in special education in the first place, the child or teenager acted that way because the child’s or teenager’s father yelled and screamed like a maniac, threw things around, and made his/her mother miserable. Teachers, psychiatrists, and all other professionals refuse to understand that (1) children and teenagers copy their parents and (2) children and teenagers cannot tolerate discord between their parents. The child or teenager should never have been placed into special education in the first place, instead, the regular mainstream teachers should have summoned social workers to force the child’s or teenager’s father to stop acting up in order so that the child or teenager would have accordingly stopped acting up, plain and simple. Mr. Carlo Scissura, who is a lawyer in his own right, told me by email when he unsuccessfully ran for office that difficult children are placed into special education not that they need it but in order to get rid of the child, he himself used to serve on a local school board and he and I are thus on the same page. The child or teenager in question stopped yelling, screaming, and losing his/her temper in the classroom and stopped talking out of turn and yet the child’s or teenager’s regular mainstream homeroom teacher refused to give him/her permission to go on the regular mainstream school club trip and told him/her to get the permission from a special education teacher, the child or teenager NEVER deserved to be punished, he/she should have instead been given compassion for having an abusive father and a mother who does nothing to stop the father, the father and the mother should have both been given psychiatric help instead of allowing the father to continue to take his problems out on his child or teenager. The child or teenager is NOT disruptive anymore therefore, the child’s or teenager’s regular mainstream homeroom teacher should not have refused to give him/her permission to go on a regular mainstream school club trip or any other field trip whatsoever and should not have required and/or told the child or teenager to get the permission from a special education teacher (the child or teenager also no longer attended any special education subject classes and no longer attended a special education homeroom class but instead, the child or teenager now only attends all regular mainstream subject classes and a regular mainstream homeroom class), plain and simple. The child or teenager should not been treated according to his/her past but should have been forgiven and should have been treated like everybody else, plain and simple. What else would you like to know? Please give feedback and please reply.

At last a relevant comment ! No it doesnt work for everyone..Inclusion is a myth ,it depends on the child s abilities to learn and to be able to work in a classroom with other children. .Some can do it..others will never be able to follow a school program..

Severely

It's the ideology of inclusion applied to schools. They play on people's emotions by focusing on disability, but inclusion is much wider and totally destruction of order. It is to bring down the healthy (smart white kids), not elevate the sick.

Thank you for your opinion, but it is wrong.

I’m not even a teacher and 100% agree with you because it’s just common sense…
