Mainstream Classrooms: Inclusion Program

Lily Cole Dept: The new "inclusion" program aims to have all students, including those with learning disabilities and immigrants learning English, into mainstream classrooms. Teachers are applauding a new inclusion program, but say it will not work without appropriate resources, according to CBC. "Excellent philosophy. We are wholeheartedly in support of it," Cole told Radio's St. John's Morning Show and newfoundland and Labrador has a plan to bring all students together at school, but not nearly enough resources to make it work, the teachers' union says. But Lily Cole, president of the Newfoundland and Labrador Teachers' Association, said the provincial budget that was tabled last week does not include money to make the program work. As reported in the news.
