Around 150 individuals from among parents, teachers, occupational therapists, school leaders and other interest groups attended the conference, listened to presentations and took part in a discussion about the importance of meeting the learning needs of all pupils in day-to-day primary school work.<\/i><\/p>\n
Inclusive education, the education and human rights of children, and proposals for the provision of special measures were discussed, in addition to hearing the experiences of pupils, parents and other interest groups. Working groups submitted their perspectives at the end of the conference, which will be compiled and used to determine the next steps with the aim of making a good school system even better. Trausti \u00deorsteinsson, former Director of Education for the City of Akureyri, spoke about teachers in inclusive schools, and Margr\u00e9t Mar\u00eda Sigur\u00f0ard\u00f3ttir, the Children's Ombudsman, spoke about the education and human rights of children. A working group then presented proposals on the provision of special provisions and the arrangement of support for children with special needs in Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur's primary schools. With the seminar, the City of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur aimed to listen to and get a better feel for the viewpoints of all interest groups regarding the implementation of school activities in Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur's primary schools, specifically to enhance the quality of the school's work and to gather further perspectives for its development.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
