Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Needs may be temporary eg glue ear, asthma, severe allergies, emotional/behavioural difficulties. Eg sensory impairment blind, deaf, physical disabilities, severe learning difficulties. Some children have multiple disabilities . In the UK the number of children with severe disabilities is increasing, partly due to advances in medicine. You will have all taught children with special needs, you just might not know it. Children good at hiding disabilties. If you can’t see what the teacher is writing you have to use other method, eg guessing what the teaqcher is writing , copying from friends. You will miss a lot but if you are clever teachers never notice. It just means that some veru bright children nevber reach ntheir potential.
  2. The degree you are affected by disability often depends on where you are and what you are expected to do. Malawi PD but intelligent in Village where schooling is basic and the ability to carry water, look after grazing animals is very useful to community you won’t be considered disabled. If you have a physical disabilty that means can’t walk well and your muscles are weak you will be considered disabled. Lets say you attend a. Middle class city school adnnd you ahve to learn to speak English suddenly itas different. The bright physically disabled child is not so disabled after all, the child with learning dificultes is suddenty very disabled. Equal opportun ities leanguages are part of cultural richness Languages are part of the cultural richness of our society and the world in which we live and work. Learning languages contributes to mutual understanding, a sense of global citizenship and personal fulfilment. Pupils learn to appreciate different countries, cultures, communities and people. By making comparisons, they gain insight into their own culture and society. The ability to understand and communicate in another language is a lifelong skill for education, employment and leisure in this country and throughout the world.
