need some input

[needmorecoffee]

I'm doing a report on inclusive education and need some input from non-disabled parents. Already got input from disabled adults, disabled kids and disabled parents but we need to hear non-disabled views on inclusion given the vast majority of disabled poeple have non-disabled parents.
So
Thoughts on inclusion vs segregation and WHY.
Is it lack of suitable support or the actual impairment that leads to parents wanting segregated education?
What do parents know about the sociel model vs the medical model and which do they subscibe too, as it were.
If a child got a suitable level of support plus all the required equipment (look, a flying pig) would more parents be happy about inclusion?
Do parents think co-location will take away their rights to insist on an inclusive education?

Any thoughts would be welcome as we are meeting with the council next week. ta muchly

it was a conference for disabled parents and all the agencies.
And there weren't any biscuits. pah!

no biscuits!?

shocking isn't it. I did complain

Maybe they were still searching for some appropriately "inclusive" biscuits that absolutely everyone likes? There's always some awkward bugger will only eat fig newtons. [barf]

...Or, in the case of a young friend of ours, two varieties he describes as "dodgy jammers" and "squashed fly biscuits"

bought up the lack of creche too. FFS it was a conference about disabled parents. The word 'parents' should have given them a clue.

oh they did that here. Had a consultation about (lack of) after school care for disabled kids at..... 4pm (FFS)

The cynical part of me suspects that was done on purpose.
