Why study Inclusive Education?

Inclusive education is recognised as a global imperative for improving the education for all learners, however, the implementation of best practice can be challenging. This field of study develops the skills, knowledge and values required to teach students with diverse abilities and needs. You will gain a thorough understanding of inclusion, such as how to implement effective inclusive practices, and how to lead change to enhance inclusion in classrooms, schools and systems.
