Inclusion

What does Inclusion mean?

"True inclusion is like a woven mat, it intertwines through the environment, the curriculum the minds of practitioners, parents, and the children. Inclusion is achieved through the hands, hearts and minds of individuals."

Source: Jackie Parkin – Early Education & Childcare Inclusion Co-ordinator – Rotherham Early Years Childcare & Extended Services.

"Inclusion is seen as a universal human right. The aim of inclusion is to embrace all people irrespective of race, gender, disability, medical or other need. It is about giving equal access and opportunities and getting rid of discrimination and intolerance (removal of barriers). It affects all aspects of public life."
