For those students experiencing learning disabilities the emphasis of school should be on .............
Changing school culture and organization and provide adequate resources
Modern inclusive education follows a social or ecological model: difficulties in learning arise partly from the way schools are organised, so the school itself must change to meet the needs of every pupil.
This means changing school culture (attitudes, values, teaching practices) and organisation (flexible curriculum, timetables, team teaching, resource rooms) and providing adequate resources such as special educators, aids and materials.
Family support, extra coaching and concessions are helpful but partial, individual-level measures; on their own they leave the system unchanged and may even label the pupil.
Hence, the school's emphasis should be on changing school culture and organization and providing adequate resources.
