  5. What Have We Learned? • It’s more about the attitude, not about the skills • It’s more about the willingness, not about the money • We need to recognise the diversity of needs that individuals have and we need to remove prejudice and barriers • There are visible and non-visible differences that exist among people. Acknowledge and respect. • A child’s right to be included must be at the heart of educational practice
