The students also become able to work on individual goals while also participating in the classroom community with their peers. Another beneficial quality includes the fact that each of the parents can now feel including in their education and the activities of their neighborhood schools. One of the most important qualities of this program is that the students that were once excluding into self-contained classrooms or were homebound can now develop friendships with a wide variety of other children with their own individual wants, needs and abilities.

Inclusion and inclusive education are quite broad in definition, however with the support of this unit my professional understanding of inclusion has been formed by research and practices such as all student engagement, asking the question how? we can provide for diverse needs (Spandagou, Lecture 2), also Standard 1 of the Disability Education Standards (2005) identifies the need to know our students and how they learn, thus the need for personalised learning plans. The IPAA is an incredible framework, a reflective tool to assist teachers in achieving an inclusive approach to education, teaching and learning which helps to achieve standards 5 & 6 in the Disability Standards for Education (Florian, 2014, p.293). I agree with Foreman (2008) in his argument for inclusion as a concept which extends beyond the immediate environment and education to society itself. It is not ignorable the fact of discrimination and unsettlement of people around others with disability and lack of education about various disabilities and additional needs is concerning.

Abstract: The Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP) has provided great benefits from its delivered instruction for students of all ages and grade levels. The SIOP model, in compliance with content standards, has established itself to being an effective strategy, addressing all students’ needs by focusing on correlated components. Using strategies that relate to these components, educators may plan design and allocate lessons that focus on the academic and linguistic needs of all students (The Arizona Department of Education). Included in this paper is an unambiguously defined SIOP model lesson plan and rationale created for the purposes of this essay. Identified within the SIOP lesson plan is the content and language standards and objectives to be attained by students.
Some schools’ mission statement is the modern equivalent to a motto. “Although our pupils achieve well, we are interested in more than just results.
