INCLUSIVE    EDUCATION

Education should be the manifestation of all that is inherent in all human-beings. If inherence is inheritance, then all must get the opportunities for equal and inclusive education as far as possible and practicable. As is known to all that the gap between the haves and have-nots couldn’t be bridged effectively despite all visible and invisible efforts by various govt. agencies and many NGOs working in the field, so now more concerted efforts are expected from all quarters to bring in a sense of balance towards working for Inclusive Education.

And to achieve the goal of reaching the Target all must direct their efforts towards making education more feasible for all sections of society.

Clarity of vision is so essential to maintain continuity and in trying to do so all stake holders must participate with one blue-print in mind, so that the journey towards equality can be a reality without further delay.

Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation as was implemented by CBSE is one of the most important landmarks and stand points in the desired direction of Inclusive Education for one and all.

The poorer and the needy sections of society must get the opportunities for job-oriented Vocational Training which alone can empower them to attain the basic minimum livelihood opportunities.

Here it is needless to say that CCE has brought about many required changes which earlier were not perceived as necessary inputs in the system of class-room delivery at any level.

Continuity is the best regularity and ceaselessness of creativity can only be possible in an environment of such evaluation which is holistic and participatory.

The different Levels and Stages of CCE makes the entire process of ‘learner evaluation’ so very democratic for all students in the sense that there is a series of four FAs spread all throughout the year interspersed with two SAs to cover two halves of the Academic Year.

Each FA has 10% weightage, totaling 40% of the assessment and the two SAs consist of 30% weightage which make the entire body of the Academic Cake.

Inclusion in the process of ceaselessly continuous learning goes on. All move on the thoroughfare of Education with equal opportunity for all, keeping their common Goal alive and achievable in all possible ways.

Let me conclude here with a Thought for all the valued contributors  and readers:     “ Never fear war for peace is permanent, war just happens for a change.”
