Situation Peter suffers from cerebral palsy. His
parents delayed sending him to school to receive
education. Now he is ten and his peers are
studying in Grade 4. His father begins thinking
of sending him to an elementary school. However,
his mother argues that the medical treatment
should be preferred and he should postpone
schooling until the disease is cured.
Question Which side of the parents do you stand
on? Should the child receive education or
continue the medical treatment? Or can you
suggest a better way to help Peter?

Inclusion
Claims as its imperative the individualization
of the education system for all students, and
attempts to develop a far more holistic approach
to education in general.
To ensure that students with special learning
needs have the opportunity to receive all or part
of their instruction in regular education classes
