Inclusive education and its present perspectives - The Social Ripples

 

We all like the idea of an inclusive society, right? It is the approach to bring equality, peace, and harmony in the society, where every individual actively participates to protect the fundamental right of the other one. It is the society where we all love the environment we coexist. Inclusive education is one of the important steps included in the process of building an inclusive society. It is the approach towards educating every child equally. Inclusive education gives equal opportunity for quality education to disabled children. It aims to educate the physically challenged children and children with other disabilities along with the normal children in the same school and under the same roof. It will help the children to accept each other despite of their disabilities and there will be an establishment of emotion to help the children with disabilities.

Children are the future of the nation. Hence, they should be educated, be tolerant and inclusive right from their school. Inclusive education is the right process of bringing a tolerant and inclusive society. Also, it is the fundamental right of every child to get a quality education. 

Every child has a special thing to give to society. It may be an abled or disabled child each of the children is special. If equal opportunities are not given to both of them their talent will remain unnoticed. With inclusive education, it will be possible to give every child an equal opportunity.

It is a scenario that nearly 40 million children with physical and mental disabilities and of the age group from 4 o 16 are forbidden from mainstream schooling. It has to lead to a major discouragement to the parents of disabled children. This discouragement was given by the school and other abled children's parents as they feared that it, will affect their children's quality of education. There is a need to understand that children can flourish their talent right from their school. The only thing they need is to have a fair opportunity. Inclusive education is a path for disabled children to grow themselves as great individuals in the future by using their talent to the fullest. It will also lead to the growth and development of an inclusive society.

It is also the scene that most of the children in rural areas are excluded from schools as they are disabled, and also they are not receiving education due to a lack of special schools in rural areas. It has to lead to a loss to them, and they are deprived, of living a quality life without education at all. The social ripples, as an organization, focuses on generating awareness of creating an inclusive society through inclusive education. They aim to give exposure and opportunity to every child regardless of his physical and mental disability. It will help the whole society to be inclusive and tolerant in the future. The social ripples and the team promotes the ideas and measures to be taken by the government and schools to provide children with an inclusive environment by creating and investing in inclusive classrooms that are friendly for every child.
