The Importance of Promoting Inclusion Of Persons With Disabilities for All KidsNehaNaayar
The collaborative education of children with special needs and those who are generally developing is referred to as inclusive education. It’s a concept that is frequently misinterpreted and abused; whereas many schools make the claim to be inclusive, very few actually are. But what does it mean to “promoting inclusion of persons with disabilities”?
What is inclusive education?
In inclusive education, regular students and students with special needs connect socially and academically while learning in the same physical area. Sharing the same physical area while taking part in entirely separate activities is not inclusive; it is not an either-or situation. Because of this, it’s critical for the entire school community to recognise the value of inclusion and make it a priority. This includes school administrators, instructors, parents, and students. When that occurs, everyone wins.

Abstract: India is a developing country having so many challenges. One of the greatest challenges before a socialist and democratic country is the education of its disadvantaged people because in absence of education these people become a major liability on it. It cannot be over emphasised that economic development of a country depends to a large extent on the quality and level of the education of its people. Indian society has been crushed for ages socially, economically and politically only because a large proportion of its population has been the deprived of proper education since time immemorial. Mass education has ever been non-existent phenomenon in this so called highly cultured and affluent ancient country. These deprived people lived a life characterised in poverty, ignorance and superstition. They were easily deprived of the basic human rights and treated as domestic animals by the few rich and powerful men in the feudal social system.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
