White Paper 6 on Inclusive Education

The Department of Education appointed Gauge to carry out a study on ways the physical environment at schools could be improved in order to support the implementation of White Paper 6. This included a study on learner and community disability, environmental access assessments at schools throughout the country, the development of an environmental access specification, a costed plan listing infrastructure interventions and equipment and material resources required to upgrade access at schools. As well as hardcopy reports, outputs from the project were packaged on an interactive CD to assist with planning and advocacy programmes.
