PREPARING SCHOOL CLIMATE FOR THE INDIVIDUALISATION AND INCLUSION IN EDUCATION IN PRIMARY SCHOOLS

Summary/Abstract: Inclusion should always be practiced within a society. Every member of the society should be reeducated. Society influences all spheres of public and private life including education. Children should be educated in a democratic way, ready to accept differences and to live with them. If this is true, they will accept an inclusive education easily. They bring positive attitudes from their families and they are prepared to learn more and to live in the richness and diversity of our civilization. Our everyday living is burdened by all kinds of discriminations. Because of this, children should be educated individually and inlusivelly according to their abilities. Only a healthy, human society can contribute to the progress of the school system that will enrich each individual, educating them in a democratic and flexible way. The main goal is to establish democratic habits and culture within schools. It is neccessary to create a pozitive environment for individualization and inclusion within the educational system. Everyday communication is mostly colored by a discriminated term, especially considering students with special needs. This must be changed. In some schools special classes are settled in basements and are isolated from ordinary classes. School space and its environment should be planned and built in such a way that is adequate for children with special needs. There are cases where some teachers look differently at teachers who work with special children. Such cases of discrimination should be eliminated. Schools have to be humanized in such a manner incorporating inclusive colors. In order to prepare schools for inclusion and individualisation, teachers should be educated for this. Programs and seminars for professional development related to this topic should be organized. Teachers’ colleges also need some changes regarding their inclusive characters. Subjects for future teachers should be more inclusive. There is a lack of a proper school material, tools and devices for work with these children. It is neccessary to change traditional attitudes and prejudices. Schools and society as a whole must be opened for everyone. Progress of any individual depends on the readiness and will of every member of society to help, to promote, to improve existing situation in regular and special schools
