Attitudes towards Special Educational Needs: Dysconscious Ableism?
Fiona Hallett1; Graham Hallett1
British Journal of Special Education, v52 n2 p197-201 2025
This article explores the impact of teacher attitudes on the provision of Special Educational Needs (SEN) and the increasing trend of segregated educational settings. It introduces the concept of "Dysconscious ableism" to analyse how implicit biases and perceptions shape educational processes for children with SEN. By reflecting upon teacher perspectives across different national contexts, this article aims to highlight the role of attitudes in reinforcing exclusionary practices or promoting inclusive education.
