Q

How would you deal with discrimination issues? Give an example

A

I would go to the safeguarding lead / mentor
Each school would have their own discrimination and equality policy / anti bullying which I would read up on when I started
For example, if I heard that a child was being unkind to another child based on a certain characteristic - I would speak to my mentor at the time and report it
Also tell the child that this isn’t appropriate behaviour and maybe speak to their parent

Q

How would you go about creating an inclusive learning environment?

A

In the simplest terms, inclusion in education means ensuring every child, no matter what their individual needs or barriers to learning, has equal access to learning and the same opportunities to achieve

While it is usually necessary to put specific plans in place to meet the specific needs of children in your class, there are a number of things that all teachers can do to create a safe, happy, purposeful and inclusive environment. It is those broad, all-purpose examples of inclusion in the classroom which we’ve covered in this article

Be aware of the needs of every child and that my lessons are tailored to meeting the needs of the children - whether this be delivering a separate lesson to certain children
