Synopsis

This book provides highly practical information for teachers looking to develop and maintain an inclusive classroom and school.The issue of "inclusion" is an important one for teachers of children in the early years through to young adulthood.

At a whole school level, a good school will have an inclusive ethos, dealing effectively with prejudice, stereotyping, name calling and other forms of bullying. Intrinsically education rests on "inclusive" values. This book will unpack all these sensitive and wide ranging aspects of inclusion using an accessible, practical and non-threatening approach.This highly practical series contains a wide range of books of importance to teachers, trainees and NQTs. Each book is packed with ready-to-use activities to be used in the classroom. They are quick and easy to dip into: each technique is presented on the left-hand page, and the facing right-hand page shows a practical activity to put that technique into practice.
