1. DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT LEVEL DELIVERY MODEL

British Columbia promotes an inclusive education system in which students with diverse abilities and disabilities are fully participating members of a community of learners.  Inclusion describes the principle that all students are entitled to equitable access to learning, achievement and the pursuit of excellence in all aspects of their educational programs.  The practice of inclusion goes beyond a student's placement within the classroom, and includes meaningful participation and the promotion of interaction with peers.

Teachers in the field will need:

a)  to be committed to inclusion;

    regular and special/inclusive education;
