DUBAI // A two-day conference is to look at how children with special needs can be integrated into schools.
Teachers, experts, supervisors and administrators at rehabilitation centres will come together to analyse the local, regional and global challenges on the issue.
The event has been organised by Ishara Consultants under the patronage of the Al Maktoum Charity foundation and will take place on March 7 and 8.
Also in attendance will be students’ learning support groups and education experts.
Maalainine Salama, managing director at Ishara Consultants, said those taking part will debate best practice, strategies and the latest methods and look at the importance of integration in delivering educational reforms and reducing the gap between theory and practice.
Officials from the Ministry of Education will also participate in the conference.

Retail gloom
Online grocer Ocado revealed retail sales fell 5.7 per cen in its first quarter as customers switched back to pre-pandemic shopping patterns.
It was a tough comparison from a year earlier, when the UK was in lockdown, but on a two-year basis its retail division, a joint venture with Marks&Spencer, rose 31.7 per cent over the quarter.
The group added that a 15 per cent drop in customer basket size offset an 11.6. per cent rise in the number of customer transactions.
What is tokenisation?
Tokenisation refers to the issuance of a blockchain token, which represents a virtually tradable real, tangible asset. A tokenised asset is easily transferable, offers good liquidity, returns and is easily traded on the secondary markets.
