Assessment Overview

The 21st century primary school is a very diverse space. You may teach children from a range of different cultural backgrounds; refugee children, migrant children, children living in poverty, children caring for parents and family members, children who are battling with mental health issues or issues with their own sexuality. As an effective inclusive primary school teacher, you must demonstrate an understanding of how you can meet the needs of diverse learners.
This assignment requires you to work through two case studies on diversity, equity and inclusion and respond with a report detailing your problem-based learning process, findings and advice.

Mental health and well being
Michel is starting primary school this year. He is six years old. He repeated four-year-old kinder due to selective mutism. Michel’s parents have been taking him to see a child psychologist for the past two years. He still refuses to speak in social situations but he will play with other children, and speaks to his family in the home environment where symptoms of his anxiety are minimal. Michel has an older brother, called Andre, in Grade 2 at the same school, and he is progressing well. Michel has been to the orientation days for the new foundation students and he would not look at the teacher, or answer any questions. He is familiar with the school because his brother has been there for three years.

1. An analysis of the additional needs identified in the case.
