Summary of the Profile of Inclusive Teachers
July 06, 2011
'In Europe, demands on schools and teachers have become increasingly complex. Schools are expected to deal effectively with diverse learner backgrounds, to be sensitive to culture and gender issues, to promote tolerance and social cohesion, as well as to keep up-to-date with new teaching techniques and technologies. This has made teacher education for inclusion a top priority in many European countries.
In March, 2011, UNESCO-IBE participated in discussions as part of a study visit aimed to validate a European profile of inclusive teachers' competencies, that took place at the University of Stavanger in Norway. In particular, project experts considered 'the relevance of the profile for teacher education policy reform, with teacher educators, student teachers, novice teachers and mentors'.
'It is hoped that the profile will contribute to the discussions around inclusive teacher training in Europe and can be used as a means of furthering debate and investigation at the national and regional level.'
A summary of the profile of inclusive teachers can be found at the link below.
