QUESTION 1 (2 ANSWERS PROVIDED)
INTRODUCTION
Inclusive education, the practice of including all students, irrespective of their abilities or
disabilities, cultural backgrounds, and socio-economic status, is a concept that many
educational systems worldwide strive to implement. South Africa, a nation with a complex
history of apartheid and social inequality, has made significant strides post-1994 to
embrace inclusive education policies. Despite these efforts, exclusion persists within South
African schools. This essay examines the reasons behind this persistence of exclusion by
exploring various dimensions of power, equity, inclusion, and social difference. Additionally,
it assesses whether teachers possess the necessary skills, knowledge, and attitudes to
implement inclusive education effectively and offers practical suggestions for overcoming
barriers to its implementation.
