CURSO PRESENCIAL: THE EQUALITY, DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION (EDI) DEPARTMENT IN BILINGUAL SECONDARY CLASSROOM

The course provides support and advice to teachers and other staff in relation to students with specific learning and or medical needs. It also provides training sessions, resources, and teaching materials as well as fostering an inclusive culture in all teaching centres and off-site schools through projects and materials that raise awareness and celebrate inclusion.
Educators can have a positive impact in helping learners’ reach their full potential in the bilingual classroom. Inclusive teaching practices put the learners at the centre. Designing lessons bearing in mind all of our learners’ needs, reduces the number of adjustments necessary to make the curriculum accessible to all pupils.
