However, these barriers can be overcome through an attitude of determination, with ongoing training and self-enrichment on the part of the teacher and the broader community. Overcoming the barriers is imperative for inclusion to be successful. Inclusive education starts with parents advocating for their children with school management.Inclusion exposes a child with hearing loss to individualized teaching strategies. It requires additional support from family and the school team, which usually includes the classroom teacher and the teacher of the deaf/hard of hearing and may also include the speech-language therapist and other special education support staff in the child’s school.The purpose of inclusive education is to ensure that all children gain access to knowledge and skills that will make them socially and economically independent.
