Every learner and every teacher have a unique blend of personal
characteristics and background factors that change with time and
context, and affect the experience of living and developing.
Traditionally, the education of learners with disabilities focused
on the nature of specific conditions in an attempt to alleviate
barriers to learning. The impairment, and not the impact thereof on
participation at school or at home, was emphasised. A more
contemporary view is to focus on the strengths, attitudes and
abilities of children within meaningful contexts. Believe that all
can achieve addresses inclusion as the foundation for education in
an attempt to celebrate diversity in the classroom, to capitalise
on the strengths each learner brings to the learning-teaching dyad,
and to welcome every family member as part of the broader classroom
community. Believe that all can achieve embraces the core values of
the South African Constitution - freedom, dignity and equality. It
shares best practice, evidence-based techniques and strategies in
an effort to build a deeper understanding of the core challenges
and possible solutions. Narratives, case studies, screening
checklists, engaging illustrations and examples provided in the
book enable the teacher to translate theory into actuality in the
classroom. The chapters on challenging behaviours; intellectual,
learning, physical and sensory disabilities; autistic spectrum
disorders, and medical conditions add a wealth of information and a
ready reference. Believe that all can achieve is aimed at students
and teachers in the field of inclusive education. Seeing children
with disabilities at work has taught me that there are many things
they do that I thought they could not do. From this experience I
now know that I would have no problem employing a person who is
mentally or physically challenged. I ask God to help all of us have
a better understanding and to see them as normal. I also ask that
inclusion becomes part of many schools because I truly believe we
can all benefit from inclusion.
