Question 1 1.1 Read the information in the case study below to answer the
questions that follow. Case study: Empowering learners with disabilities in
Africa Introduction: In many African countries, learners with disabilities face
, various challenges in accessing education. This case study explores the
perspectives and experiences of learners with disabilities in an African
context. The focus is on a fictitious country named Shangura, where efforts
are being made to improve the inclusivity of the education system. Although
Shangura has its own cultural beliefs, the country is growing in its recognition
of the rights of learners with disabilities. Community awareness campaigns
and education programmes provide insight into traditional practices that
hinder inclusion. Parental involvement is encouraged through regular
communication, parent-teacher meetings, and workshops on supporting
learners at home. Community-based initiatives include support groups and
advocacy programmes to empower parents and caregivers. Case study
scenario: Shangura is a diverse country in Africa with a rich cultural tapestry.
The government has recently recognised the need to look into the educational
disparities faced by learners with disabilities. The education ministry has
implemented inclusive policies and is working to create an environment that
accommodates diverse learning needs, for instance by building accessible
infrastructure and providing assistive devices to ensure equal access to
education for all learners, including those with disabilities. Classrooms are
adapted through flexible seating arrangements, assistive technology, and
additional learning materials. Teacher training programmes include modules
on inclusive education, and ongoing support is provided through mentoring
and workshops. Continuous professional development is essential, and
feedback mechanisms are in place to deal with specific challenges faced by
teachers. Teachers in mainstream schools have been trained to identify
learners with disabilities through a combination of teacher observations,
parent reports, and formal assessments. Strategies to promote interaction and
collaboration among all students include peer support DPP1501/102/0/2024 7
systems, group activities, and teacher collaboration to create an inclusive
learning environment. Assessment methods include standardised tests,
observation tools, and collaboration with special education professionals to
determine specific needs. Although the government faces challenges that
include funding limitations, measures are in place to ensure partnerships with
non-governmental organisations (NGOs) – and international organisations
help mitigate these issues. Questions: 1.1.1 How are learners with disabilities
identified in Shangura's education system? (2)
In Shangura's education system, learners with disabilities are identified through a combination of
