Inclusive Education (Article 24)

​

Sustainable Development Goal 4: Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all. Disabled people have the right to education just like other people.

​

Countries will make sure disabled people get the opportunity to go to mainstream schools and can keep learning throughout their lives so that:

​

• They are able to develop their skills and abilities to realise their worth.

• They can take their place and participate in the society.

• They are not excluded from any sort of education system.

• They can go to good local schools, and don’t have to pay for them, the same as everyone else.

• Their needs and requirements are met.

• They get proper support to learn.

• People can learn Braille and other ways of communicating as needed.

• Teach people sign language to promote it as a language of the deaf community.

• Deaf and blind children are taught in appropriate ways.

• Make sure teachers have the right skills to teach students with disabilities.

• Provide the right support for disabled people so that they have the option to continue their education as adults.
