WHAT IS INCLUSIVE
EDUCATION?
Inclusive education is not simply a new name
for ‘Special Needs Education”. It is much
broader and can be seen as the core of what
we as a nation want to achieve in terms of
developing a transformed and integrated
society in which there is tolerance and respect
for diversity and the human rights of all
people. Inclusion can be defined as:
Acknowledging that all children and youth
can learn and that all children and youth
need support.
Enabling education structures, systems and
learning methodologies to meet the needs
of all learners.
Acknowledging and respecting differences
in learners, whether due to age, gender,
ethnicity, language, class, disability, HIV or
other infectious diseases.
Broader than formal schooling and
acknowledging that learning also occurs in
the home and community, and within
formal and informal settings and structures.
Changing attitudes, behaviour, teaching
methods, curricula and environment to
meet the needs of all learners;
Maximising the participation of all learners
in the culture and the curriculum of
educational institutions and uncovering and
minimising barriers to learning.
THE STRATEGIC LEVERS FOR
INITIATING THE CHANGE
Education White Paper 6 outlines six strategic
levers for change in the system as a whole:
STRATEGY 1 Within mainstream
education, the general orientation and
introduction of management, governing
bodies and professional staff to the inclusion
model, and the targeting of early identification
of learners who experience barriers to learning
(including learners with disabilities) and
intervention in the General Education and
Training Band.
STRATEGY 2 Mobilisation of the large
number of disabled and other vulnerable outof-school youth.
STRATEGY 3 Phased conversion of 500
primary schools into full-service schools over
20 years to serve as models of inclusive
practice and provide a full range of support.
STRATEGY 4 Establishing district-based
, support teams to provide an integrated,
community-based support service.
STRATEGY 5 The improvement and
strengthening of special schools to become
resource centres that support
neighbourhood schools and are integrated
into district-based support teams.
STRATEGY 6 Engaging in advocacy and
development of educators and all other
stakeholders to understand the new approach
and our programmes.
