What are the principles of an inclusive school?

L'école inclusive est bien plus qu'un simple concept ; elle incarne un idéal éducatif où chaque individu, quels que soient ses besoins, ses aptitudes ou ses différences, est accueilli, soutenu et valorisé. Les principes fondamentaux sous-tendant une école inclusive sont multiples et convergent vers un objectif central : offrir une éducation de qualité à tous, sans exclusion ni discrimination. Pour favoriser l’inclusion de tous, nous collaborons étroitement avec la Fondation 2000 jours. Pour en savoir plus sur l’origine de cet organisme, vous pouvez vous rendre sur cette page.

Les programmes éducatifs sont flexibles et personnalisés pour répondre aux aptitudes, aux compétences et aux besoins particuliers de chaque apprenant.

Collaboration and partnership

Awareness of inclusion is crucial. An inclusive school offers ongoing training to teachers and educational staff to help them better understand the diverse needs of learners. This includes training in inclusive teaching strategies, diversity management and awareness of students' different realities.
