Paper Session
Contribution
In this paper we present an analysis of the implementation of the measures of attention to diversity of students with special educational support needs studying Compulsory Secondary education (12-16 years) in the Region of Murcia, Spain. Our aim is to learn about the organisational and curricular structures implemented in 5 Secondary Education schools by means of a comparative study. These structures are used to deal with student diversity through common and specific measures of attention to diversity, and are established by law. We intend to verify and assess whether these are properly and effectively implemented, providing a quality educational response in conformity with the discourse on inclusion and social cohesion (Karsz, 2004; Fernández Enguita, Souto and Rodriguez, 2005). A review of existing legislation suggests that it may be advisable to apply common measures before specific ones in the event that a student has educational support needs and, if possible, in the usual context, that is regular classroom.
In order to achieve this, we focused on the following aspects:
*Teacher thinking about the feasibility of attention to diversity and its main problems: teaching experience and training on student diversity (associated with a disability or intellectual giftedness).
*Ordinary measures of attention to diversity (individual learning reinforcement, flexible grouping, grouping of subjects), development of a School Policy, adjustments of the elements of the curriculum, how students receive support, optionality, guidance and mentoring of students, use of human and material resources of the school and environment.
*Extraordinary measures of attention to diversity: retake of one year, Individual Curricular Adaptation for students with special educational needs, Curricular Diversification Programme, Compensation Workshop, Professional Induction Programme and Programme for students with Special Educational Needs associated with mental disabilities (PRONEEP in Spanish).
