The Victorian Government is committed to the vision of inclusive education promoted by the Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disability. Whilst the Victorian Government respects the choice of parents/carers on which school they choose for their child, there is the aspiration that all schools will become more inclusive to ensure students like Adon can attend their local government school, and feel safe and supported to learn there. Adon’s insights can help teachers understand how to form meaningful connections with their non-speaking students before they begin teaching them.
