Most regular schools have neither staff nor the equipment, in order to promote
children with handicap effectively. Genuine inclusion would cost much money.
Actually I should do that as a promotion lady teacher in summer holidays, what
by me is expected: nothing. But the public discussion over inclusion does not
leave peace to me. Many of the reports and comments cannot be attuned simply
with my experiences from the everyday school life. I always shorten the same
places. As for example with an article over children with specialeducational
promotion need, who are informed at High Schools. It is naturally beautiful to
read that individual children can visit a High School successfully with down
syndrome. Nevertheless no unencumbered luck feeling wants to adjust itself
during the reading. My head is full questions: Are all also in the best possible
way promoted these children? Where do the mentioned sound drawing male nurses,
school companion, integration aide actually come? Who requested, approved and
paid? Apart from the many hours of the promotion school teachers at the High
School times completely. That does not fit my knowledge somehow over hourly
contingents and the needs of individual pupils after specialeducational
promotion.
But perhaps High Schools have other possibilities, from which I do not know
anything, because: High Schools do not occur in my vocational practice. I work
on a school for children with promotion need within the ranges learning,
language and emotional and social development. So far I became acquainted with
still no parents, whose children have promotion need in mental development,
which its children wanted however nevertheless on the High School fancy. After
my experience it looks bad straight with pupils with promotion need in the
emotional and social development with inclusion. Because there are hardly it to
take up the regular schools, which are in the position, a pupil who slams shut
its environment in regular intervals insulted, again and again and with all
power any subject matter resists. One cannot blaim it the schools: Children, who
need special support in their emotional development, paralyze instruction in
each school. It needs special concepts, in order to make for them possible the
participation in the school life.
The term inclusion implies a participation of all children at the mainstream
system nevertheless. Anyhow the responsible persons politicians seem in such a
way to understand it, nevertheless everywhere in Germany special schools are
closed. The children with specialeducational promotion need instead mostly at
main and comprehensive schools informs. There they receive however only rarely
the promotion, which they actually need. Who from the inside saw times a school
for mental development, with their different spatialities and possibilities for
special instruction (to swim, psycho motor skills, etc.) and the time tables
adapted in addition which plan various promotions for the individual pupil, who
will inevitably ask itself, how regular schools are to offer an equivalent
promotion. However around spatialities of the regular schools for a functioning
inclusion to adapt, a quantity money would have to be invested. Also special
promotion concepts for the children would be very expensive in the conversion. I
am afraid that momentarily nobody is ready to bear these cost. For this reason a
surface covering inclusion, which also earns the name, will take time well still
for a very long time. The authoress writes under alias. Their correct name is
well-known the editorship.
