The psycho-pedagogical and psycho-social dimension of the inclusive school

The psycho-pedagogical and psycho-social dimension of the inclusive schoolMotto: "None of us is as clever as we all together."

Maybe each of us has searched the answer of some questions like: “Why all the pupils from a class cannot make significant progress in learning?” or “Can we help the pupils to progress in school learning if they are learning slowly?”

The differences between pupils are normal and learning must be adapted to their necessities. A pedagogy which is centred on the children could be helpful for all of us. The schools that are centred on the pupils are nursery for a society centred on people, who respect the differences and also the dignity of the human being.
For realising our objective, and here I am speaking about a successful school education for all the pupils, it is necessary to cooperate with their families and with the voluntary organisations of the community.

The inclusive education is a challenge for the usual/ normal school, without to represent a direct threat for the professional and social status of the teachers and that doesn't means the professional schools must be abolished.
In the evolution of the children with disabilities in learning the following steps are obligatory:

• To recognize the fact that there are pupils who need special care, attention and help;
• The society must understand its responsibility for these pupils;
• We must help the pupils to integrate themselves from the special schools in normal schools step by step ;
• We must recognize the right to education for all the children.

For discovery the creator potential of each child, every teacher must identify all the abilities of that child. Gardner called that abilities brain-power/ intelligence. Every person has each of the eight types of intelligence, but their level is different. At each person these types of intelligence appear in different combinations each child being “a collection of intelligences”. The school must create a type of learning that maximizes the intellectual potential of each pupil because everyone has different profile of intelligence. An important element in applying at class the theory of intelligences is the knowledge of the intelligence profile of the pupils.

For realizing a good climate for the inclusive learning, the teacher must know some problems concerning of the management of the group. Those aspects are referring to the ergonomic of the group/ class, making the pupils responsible with CES and establishing of some rules for the whole group/ class.

The practice of developing inclusive schools involves:

- Understanding inclusion as a continuing process, not a one-time event.
Strengthening and sustaining the participation of students, teachers, parents and community members in the work of the school.
- Restructuring the cultures, policies and practices in schools to respond to the diversity of pupils within their locality. Inclusive settings focus on identifying and then reducing the barriers to learning and participation, rather than on what is "special" about the individual student or group of students, and targeting services to address the "problem".
- Providing an accessible curriculum, appropriate training programs for teachers, and for all students, the provision of fully accessible information, environments and support.
- Identifying and providing support for staff as well as students.

In conclusion, it is necessary to recreate the kinds of education in compliance with the changes that took place in our society. It is also necessary to be more preoccupied in finding the most efficient way of integration of the pupils with CES in a normal class. For that reason the teachers must be in a permanent process of improvement their knowledge or to ask for the special trained teacher in this domain. It is sure that we mustn’t ignore the existence of that kind of pupils in the school for being convinced that we respect us as teacher.
