KEY PARTS OF DISABILITY INCLUSION 

 

Disability Inclusion will allow us to make the adjustments our students need to help with their participation, engagement and learning at school. It may provide additional investment that our school can use to support groups of students with learning difficulties. A key feature of the Disability Inclusion model are student profiles.

 

The student profile will help our school and families identify the strengths, needs and educational adjustments we can make to help students with disability.

This will be completed with the support of key people who understand the student’s education and support needs. An external facilitator will help us work through the profile with families.

 

Our school will make reasonable adjustments to ensure all students can access and participate in education.

 

Please see the attached presentation for further information

What is Neurodiversity Celebration Week?

Neurodiversity Celebration Week is a worldwide initiative that challenges stereotypes and misconceptions about neurological differences. It aims to transform how neurodivergent individuals are perceived and supported by providing schools, universities, and organisations with the opportunity to recognise the many talents and advantages of being neurodivergent, while creating more inclusive and equitable cultures that celebrate differences and empower every individual.

 

Bundoora Primary School are proud to celebrate Neurodiversity! Look out during that week for some posters around the school advertising famous people who are Neurodivergent, some might surprise you! 

 

On Wednesday 20th March we will be celebrating and asking all our students to wear their favourite colour or outfit -"What makes  you, YOU!"

 

There will be a number of activities in the classrooms during the week also. If you'd like to get involved at home please see this fabulous website that is packed full of wonderful resources.

 

 

Warmest Regards
