Presentation
Since the law of February 11, 2005, "For equal rights and opportunities, participation and
citizenship of people with disabilities", the schooling of students with disabilities
has been a government priority. However, whatever their singularity, whatever their
needs, schools now have a duty to be fully inclusive. It must ensure quality schooling
by seeking out and offering appropriate responses to each pupil, from kindergarten to high school.
With this in mind, this course has two objectives:
To train professionals in the challenges of inclusive schooling, by enriching their knowledge
and their practices, and helping them to better understand and support these publics with specific needs
.
To develop a scientific culture linked to research in the service of inclusion.
This master's program is open to:
Teachers wishing to prepare for the CAPPEI certification (certification of aptitude
professionnelle aux pratiques de l'éducation inclusive et formation professionnelle spécialisée created
by the decree of 10-2-2017).
Teachers of regular classes and professionals working with children with
specific needs (educators, ...) who wish to develop their professional practices and
deepen their knowledge of students with special educational needs.
