Book Hero thinking about your next read

Offering over 70 strategies to help educators respond to the challenge of an increasingly diverse student population, this unique book provides a blueprint for an education system which places children at its centre, and recognises the impacts of school, community, bureacracy and society on opportunities for learning and student attainment.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Educators today face two major challenges. The first is to develop an education system which meets the needs of an ever more diverse student population. The second is to successfully implement such a system. This requires nothing less than a revolutionary transformation of current approaches taken to education.

Drawing on research-based evidence and offering over 70 concrete strategies to help educators respond to these challenges, this unique book provides a blueprint for an education system which will recognise the rights of all students, while engendering social cohesion and an equitable society. Broadening the scope of inclusive education, the author presents an ecological modelβ€”a system which places children at its centre and acknowledges the impacts of school, community, bureaucracy, and society, to maximise opportunities for learning, and see students achieve the same levels of attainment, regardless of their gender, socio-economic status, ethnicity, religious beliefs, or disability.

A timely book which addresses the concerns of teachers and educators around the globe, The Ecology of Inclusive Education will give its readers the knowledge and confidence they require to meet the needs of each and every learner.
