Inclusive practice and individual learning plans

Description:
When teachers understand students, their cultural and linguistic background, their gender identity and its impact on them, the significant experiences that have shaped them e.g. the presence of trauma, the experience of disability or a learning disorder, then teachers can shape an inclusive environment that promotes high quality learning opportunities for all. It is a complex task to know all students but there are school procedures and weekly and daily routines that you can implement that build your knowledge of students and create a respectful classroom environment. In this session the presenter will explore different routines and practices that teachers can use to create a more inclusive classroom culture.
