The Importance of Teacher Aides in Supporting Social Inclusion in Schools

The recording of this webinar is available in the Professional Development library, under Inclusive Education.

Teacher aides have a valuable role to play in supporting social inclusion for students with disability. Social inclusion takes place in class and in the playground, and students who are not included may feel lonely and lack a sense of belonging. 

In this webinar, presenters from Deakin University will draw on international research literature and their own recent research to highlight some of the challenges that students with disability encounter. 

Join us to learn why teachers aides are integral to successful inclusion, and explore a range of strategies that can be used to overcome challenges and promote inclusion of students with disability.
