Incheon, South Korea:Creating a Culture of Inclusion for Students with Special Educational Needs: Connecting Inclusive Practices with Best Practices for Student Learning: WORKSHOP IS CANCELLED
International schools celebrate diversity, but how do schools create an inclusive culture that ensures all students can access learning and experience success? This interactive workshop enables participants to explore the nature of the needs of SEN students and learn ways to create an inclusive culture that supports learning for SEN students by focusing on best practice for all learners. Using case studies and other interactive strategies, participants will have the opportunity to consider students’ needs and identify strategies that support student success within an inclusive culture. Participants will also have the opportunity to reflect on their own practice and make connections to the ways in which best practice ensures learning for SEN students. Participants will leave tools to take back to their schools.
