Inclusive teaching in secondary ELT
Building an inclusive secondary ELT classroom is not based on a
set of steps to follow. It is rather a teaching mindset. When
teachers provide teenage students with opportunities to share
information about their identities and backgrounds, and show
5 genuine interest, they are building a safe environment for all
learners. Such personalised sharing in the English classroom is
part of ‘diversity embracing’ that extends far beyond ‘a once a
year fair’ about different cultures and backgrounds.
Personalisation which includes diversity therefore becomes a
10 process, not a one-off event which enables us to incorporate
teenage students’ realities in our English teaching on a lesson by
lesson basis. Thereby involving them (and their lives beyond the
classroom) much more deeply in the language learning process.
Another key aspect of inclusive teaching relates to secondary
15 English teachers’ expectations and attitudes towards diversity. As
educators of teenagers, we need to ensure we have the same
high expectations of all our learners. We have to acknowledge
and fight our own biases, bearing in mind that we are part of
society with stereotypes, and are not free from making
20 assumptions unconsciously about minority groups. As teachers
are the model in the secondary classroom, not reproducing
behaviors and roles that offend or oppress is part of our wider
role as educators. Also, any comment that reinforces stereotypes
or reproduces discriminatory speech should be tackled and
25 deconstructed so that there is no ‘space’ for prejudice in our
secondary English classrooms.
Finally, inclusion should extend beyond the classroom. As Lekh
maintains, ‘An inclusive school or classroom can only be
successful when all students feel that they are truly part of the
30 school community. This can only happen through open, honest
discussion about differences and understanding and respecting
people from all abilities and backgrounds. An inclusive
environment is one where everyone feels valued’. Teaching
inclusively at the secondary level requires a holistic approach
35 with active learner involvement, constant questioning of
ourselves and our materials, and full participation of the whole
school community.
