Inclusion Europe is publishing a briefing on
the lack of education for children with intellectual disabilities
in the Coronavirus emergency.
Coronavirus changes many things.
But it highlights the ongoing segregation and
discrimination of people with intellectual disabilities.
In the Coronavirus emergency,
schools are closed.
The shutdown of schools is a major problem for
students with intellectual disabilities,
their families and their teachers.
Most students with intellectual disabilities are not able to
continue their learning during the Coronavirus lockdown.
Schools and governments must ensure that
discrimination and exclusion of students with intellectual disabilities
do not become normal.
Schools and governments need to ensure that
students with intellectual disabilities are not disadvantaged
from other students.
This briefing reminds governments to provide education to
students with disabilities
during the Coronavirus emergency.
Here is what the brief contains:
Situation analysis that
show how students with intellectual disabilities are being
further excluded from education by the Coronavirus measures.
Potential solutions and suggestions that
could improve the lives of students
with intellectual disabilities and their families.
Issues and error to watch out for
and mistakes to avoid when schools start again.
Resources on inclusive education
in times of Coronavirus.
A survey for completion by
parents, teachers and children with intellectual disabilities.
