Can our schools be truly inclusive for all students? |
|
Debate has raged in all quarters ever since the disability royal commission called for the phasing out of segregated education in its final report. It's clear that if that were to happen, mainstream schools would have become much more inclusive of students with disabilities. Government advisor David Armstrong told ABC RN's Life Matters he welcomed the report as it had "mechanisms and teeth" to help make that happen. Both he and Nicole Lee, the President of People with Disability Australia, were hopeful about the possibilities for change and pointed to a number of smaller and regional schools already demonstrating how it can be done. Read more of their comments here . Plus, it's the question many health professionals are asked at parties when they reveal their profession: What's that rash? Now Coronacast presenters Dr Norman Swan and Tegan Taylor are turning their attention away from Covid and towards all the other health dilemmas that keep us up at night. Listen to the first episode of What's That Rash, which considers whether you have to actually enjoy the exercise you know you should do every day. Lastly, join Big Ideas host Natasha Mitchell and other experts at a free event at Melbourne's MPavillion on November 20 as they consider Who Gets to Design Housing. More information here.
