STRATEGIES OF TEACHING FOR IMPLEMENTING INCLUSIVE EDUCATION IN INDIA

The Government of India has launched its " Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan "-an ambitious programme seeking education for all by 2010. SSA will ensure that every Child with Special Needs is provided education in an appropriate environment. To ensure the success of this programme it has Right to Education Bill, 2005, clearly emphasizing the right to every child between the age of 6 and 14 years. India is a signatory to the 1990 United Nations World Declaration on Education for All, (EFA) which reaffirmed the rights of all children including children with disabilities to access education in regular school settings and to the Biwako Millennium Framework for Action towards an inclusive, barrier free and rights based society for persons with disability, the Declaration on the Full Participation and Equality of People with Disabilities in the Asia Pacific Region. Govt. of India has to accelerate the new scheme of Inclusive Education to achieve the target of Education for All (EFA) by 2010. The success of this programme depends on the curriculum, school and teachers. This task is really tedious and challenging. It needs a thorough change in the outlook and working of those who are associated with the processes and product of the school education. In this respect the teacher play an important role. The way he/she transact the curriculum is called strategies. The teacher should understand what the aims of education are. He/she should consider the objectives of curriculum and understand the processes of learner development. In inclusive education every child has a diverse need whether it is a normal child or a CWSN.

Journal of Education: Rabindra Bharati University, India (ISSN: 0972-7175) UGC CARE Group I India , 2022

Background: We must create an inclusive learning design to make education enjoyable for all children so that education is inviting, learner-friendly, and helpful to them, and they feel a part of it rather than apart from it. Inclusion emerged as a viable solution to the problem of how to better teach these children. A good inclusive education permits all students to participate equally or nearly equally in all elements of the classroom. For the establishment of stronger and more inclusive schools, educators, parents, and community leaders must work together to solve the difficulties. The Indian government is working to enhance its education system by emphasising an inclusive approach. India is no new to the concept of inclusiveness. In today's world, the emphasis is still on providing an inclusive atmosphere for all children. Inclusive education refers to the education of all children in conventional schools, including those with and without impairments. It is a method that considers each child's individual qualities, interests, abilities, and learning needs. In today's educational system, inclusive education is gaining traction. Inclusion without 'sufficient' general school preparation will not produce satisfactory results. The capacity for inclusive education must be built at the community level, with activities such as community involvement and mobilization being included. Methodology: The Researcher has collected data from a variety of sources, including websites, journals, articles, e-books, reports, commissions, national education plans, and articles published in local, national, and worldwide publications. Secondary data sources for this review study include books, articles, libraries, reports, personal sources, journals, newspapers, websites, government documents, and online data, among others. Aims and Objectives: This article delves into the notion of inclusive education, including its issues and challenges, requirements, significance, obstacles, implementation strategies, existing policies and future prospects in India. However it is an endeavour to address the individual requirements of each child, including those with disabilities. Conclusion: The current study contributes to a better understanding of the necessity of inclusive education in schools. There are numerous advantages to inclusive education. The goal of universal education is achieved by such inclusive education. When inhibitions and boundaries are removed, education's position is elevated. It has been concluded that the incorporating children with disabilities in education is a difficult endeavour that necessitates widespread community mobilisation and participation as well as the provision of suitable answers to a wide range of learning needs of special children in both formal and non-formal contexts.

INCLUSIVE EDUCATION IN INDIA – CONCEPT, NEED AND CHALLENGES

Inclusive Education (IE) is a new approach towards educating the children with disability and learning difficulties with that of normal ones within the same roof.It brings all students together in one classroom and community, regardless of their strengths or weaknesses in any area, and seeks to maximize the potential of all students.It is one of the most effective ways in which to promote an inclusive and tolerant society. It is known that 73 million children of primary school age were out of school in 2010, down from a high of over 110 million out-of-school children in the mid-1990s, according to new estimates by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS). About Eighty percent of Indian population lives in rural areas without provision for special schools. It means, there are an estimated 8 million children out of school in India (MHRD 2009 statistics), many of whom are marginalised by dimensions such as poverty, gender, disability, and caste. Today, what are the needs and challenges for achieving the goal of inclusive education? How will an inclusive environment meet the needs of children with disabilities? How quality education can be effectively and efficiently delivered for all children? Therefore, inclusive schools have to address the needs of all children in every community and the central and state governments have to manage inclusive classrooms. Keeping in view these questions, this article discusses in detail the concept of inclusive education, including importance, challenges and measures to implement inclusive education in India.
