For example, learning environments and learning activities are adapted to ensure that all children are able to access all areas of the curriculum and all children have the same learning opportunities. All children are encouraged to be active participants in their own learning. This means that all children have and can make the same choices in a setting and the needs and interests of all children are considered and catered for. This ensures positive, successful learning outcomes. Services and practitioners counter conscious and unconscious discrimination that may prevent children from thriving, and their carers from being able to fully and actively participate in the setting/services.
Unit 204 Assignment 1 Schools have an imperative obligation in the education that their pupils receive. Is this where their obligations end or is it just as imperative that all pupils have equal rights/opportunities, work within a multi-cultural environment and that all participate?Education, cultural diversity, equal rights and participation should all balance equally. In order for children to succeed in their goals and achieve their full potential it is important to ensure all children receive equal opportunities in life. Children need good role models so that they know how to behave and what is expected of them. the world is full of diversity and culture and if we ensure that all children- regardless of race,religion,gender etc- receive equal opportunities, it will not only benefit the children but also the communities which they grow up in.
For individual learning styles to be met, within a good learning sessions a teacher will ensure he/she takes a multi-sensory approach to teaching, this way each learner can work to the best of their ability. Initial assessment and contracting before any learning takes place will ensue that learner needs are highlighted, therefore suitable support and lesson planning can take place. Inclusive learning is also about promoting a supportive and motivating learning environment that addresses the needs and barriers of all learners. For example, learners with wheelchairs need have appropriate access to the classroom and other facilities. Task 13 Strength and limitation of teaching and learning approaches Strengths and limitation of teaching and learning approaches are when a teacher implements all inclusive teaching

There will also be mention of legislation and learning curriculums that must be meet and followed. It is important for a practitioner to meet the care and learning needs of all children in order for them to achieve to their full potential. When planning to meet all of the children’s care and learning needs it is important to remember that all children develop at different rates, it is important to remember this because you should not compare one child to another; as different aspects will be more developed than each other’s e.g.
E1. Describe how pre-school settings can create an inclusive culture for children with disabilities and special educational needs. (E9. Anti-discriminatory/anti-bias practice) There are many factors that a pre-school setting needs to consider, to have an adequate culture to meet all the needs of children with disabilities and special educational needs.

It changes and matures on a regular basis. So in definition Equality (fostering and promoting the right to be different, to be free from discrimination) and Diversity (valuing variety and individual differences) are a broad two pronged rule that trainers/teachers must consider when formulating any learning subject matter. So all duties and variants should be tailored to learners as individuals this is why when reviewing and setting up subject material looking at how to ascertain an individual’s learning needs is of paramount importance, valuing diversity my chosen method of distinguishing this portion of the outcome is to use the VARK method and I feel that a training needs analysis prior to lessons is the best way to achieve this aim. With regards to equality finding out an individual’s ‘Special needs’ if any (such as dyslexia, dyscalculia etc) in a discreet manner is also extremely important.

By doing this I will be able to see what the children enjoy doing and how I can keep the child’s attention and concentration. To use the child centred approach you will have to look at every child as an individual with different strengths learning styles and interests as well as adapting to children who have learning difficulties or disabilities, to achieve this I will have to research their
The idea is that all professionals work together in any way or form and share information, and help promote the best needs of an individual, involving the individual and helping them to deal with issues that are important to them, gives the child young person a feeling of value, and gives them a sense of being in control to some degree, and realising that they do have a right to a voice, and will be listened to. Ref ; supporting Teaching and Learning in schools (p 88) Following the Every Child Matters framework the Children’s Act 2004 required that these recommendations became a legal requirement.
