Excerpt
nameInclusive Practice Policy

Inclusive practice is a fundamental business element that ensures Strategix is providing a fair and equal opportunity to all students who wish to enrol in a course of study. Each person within Strategix has a responsibility to ensure that each student is given an opportunity to enrol into and attempt/complete a Certified Qualification.

Trainers and assessors must always consider the four principles of Inclusive Learning during the day to-day delivery of a course:

  1. Everyone learns differently

  2. Being inclusive is everyone’s responsibility

  3. Learners bring existing knowledge and skills

  4. Five core skills underpin all learning.

All staff of Strategix must understand and apply the 5 core skills that underpin learning and the actions required, as follows:

  1. Understand differences in the learner cohort:

    • Provide pre-enrolment appraisals and guidance to learners.

    • Provide teachers with information on learner diversity.

  2. Access skills and expertise in addressing difference

    • Prioritise professional development on inclusive learning.

    • Create a culture of collaboration with internal and external experts.

  3. Listen to the learner

    • Identify and promote teaching and learning strategies to engage individuals and enrich the learning of others.

    • Develop models for ensuring learning decisions are based on learner input.

  4. Help learners choose an appropriate learning pathway.

    • When planning training offerings, consider pathways that will allow a diverse range of learners to access the training.

    • Provide information and guidance on course requirements and outcomes prior to enrolment.

  5. Develop the core skills of learners.

    • Provide professional development in integrating core skills into vocational content.

    • Provide LLN support across all AQF levels in recognition of the need to continually update and build core skills for new contexts.
