Although disability is the world’s largest minority, it is often not talked about in schools. In this workshop, participants will explore how students with disabilities contribute to diversity in a school population, what our perceptions of disability truly are, and how we can work to ensure that disability is considered when assessing and supporting diversity. We will focus on topics such as language around disability and ableism to support participants in identifying actionable steps they can take (and bring back to their teams) to strengthen awareness in their school communities.
