QUESTION 1
1.1.1 According to the medical model of disability, learners who have disabilities are
regarded as ‘outside the boundaries of normal’ in ordinary schools. This model views
disability as an individual medical problem that needs to be fixed or cured. The
medical model justifies this view by focusing on the individual's impairment rather
than the environment in which they are learning. Thus, it assumes that the learner
with a disability is the problem, and the solution is to fix them.

1.1.1 According to the medical model of disability, learners who have disabilities are
regarded as ‘outside the boundaries of normal’ in ordinary schools. This model views

medical model justifies this view by focusing on the individual's impairment rather

1.1.2 The consequences of being regarded as ‘outside the boundaries of normal’ are
far-reaching. Such learners are often stigmatized, discriminated against, and
excluded from participating in the regular school system. They may be placed in
separate classes or schools, where they receive a watered-down education or no
education at all. The labelling and segregation of learners with disabilities can have
negative psychological effects on the learners and their families, leading to low self-
esteem, social isolation, and depression. It can also create a sense of “otherness,”
perpetuating social divisions and excluding learners from opportunities for social and
academic growth.
QUESTION 2
2.1 The principle that "every learner has the right to access education" is a
fundamental aspect of inclusive education. It means that all learners, regardless of
their ability or disability, should have equal access to quality education. Inclusive
education is based on the principle of equality, which means that every child should
be treated with respect and dignity and given equal opportunities to learn, grow and
develop. This principle emphasizes the importance of removing barriers to learning
and ensuring that all learners have access to the necessary resources, materials,
and support services to achieve their full potential.
In South Africa, the principle of inclusive education is enshrined in the Constitution,
which states that every child has the right to education. The South African Schools
Act also provides for inclusive education and prohibits discrimination on the grounds
of race, gender, disability, or any other grounds.
