Inclusive Education

Welcome to the Department of Inclusive Education 

Our vision is to be the department that strives towards:

  • Advancing knowledge about inclusivity in education and society; and
  • Strengthening educational institutions and society’ capacity to increase educational access, participation and success for all

In achieving our vision … we will

  • Offer quality programmes [relevant, accessible and coherent], which will equip professionals with the right attitudes, knowledge and skills to respond sensitively and effectively to the diverse needs of learners. These are a different type of teacher who will not be threatened by differences. They will work comfortably with all kinds of learners, including those who need high level of support in specialised, inclusive / full service schools.
  • Create favourable environment for research and carry out innovative and ODL research, which deepens understandings about inclusivity in education and improve the responsiveness of educational institutions, with colleagues in other departments, colleges and universities.
  • Carry out responsive community engagement projects that drive the agenda of inclusivity in schools and in the wider society.
  • Strengthen our relationship with relevant stakeholders, organisations, departments and the community.
