Session 1 - What is inclusive practice

13/04/2015 Mmmm....Inclusive Practice, the final unit in my course 'Certification in Education & Training', the light at the end of the tunnel should be burning bright, the home straight, so how come I can only see a glimmer of light guiding me towards the ultimate completion and accomplishment of this qualification?

I'll tell you why this is, it's because of the question, 'What is Inclusive Practice'?. Go on then, define what it is.

Do you look at the word 'Inclusive', and then look at all of its meanings and connotations? What would you find I wonder;

Synonyms

all-embracing, all-in [chiefly British], all-inclusive, broad-gauge (or broad-gauged), compendious, complete, comprehensive, cover-all, cyclopedic, embracive, exhaustive, full, global, encyclopedic, in-depth, omnibus, panoramic, thorough, universal

So then, all-embracing, I think that covers everything, the clues in the title really, but then that's not it, it's not as easy as that, so what is Inclusive Practice?......this is going to be challenging, now I know why that light was just a glimmer and not a beacon guiding me home, its not that straight forward, but then it never is.
