32 EFA Mid-Decade AssessmentQuestions to Consider: Recommendations for Assessment onInclusive Education from International Partners1. Does national policy acknowledge and uphold the right to education of every child, andacknowledge that it is the responsibility of the government to provide education, explicitlystating the excluded minority groups by name, and extending the right to any otherexcluded groups not yet named? Groups to be named:● Children with disabilities● Migrant children● Indigenous children● Non-majority language speakers● Children from the families of the extremely poor● Any other minority and excluded groupsThese children must be provided with education irrespective of their registration status.2. Does national legislation uphold the rights of these children to education, withenforcement mechanisms for non-compliance?3. Has anti-discrimination legislation been passed, naming the groups above?4. Does any discriminatory legislation exist, which prevents children of any category frombeing included in education? Are there plans to repeal or revise such legislation?5. Does the policy include mechanisms for finding and identifying children who are notattending school? Do these mechanisms require links with the community, school and theMinistry of Education (MoE)?6. Does the MoE have any incentive system to keep children from these groups in schoole.g. small financial payment to families? Many children enter school and drop out veryquickly because the family is very poor and the child is needed at home or to work orbecause schools are unwelcoming or does not cater to particular needs of the child.7. Policy and implementation: Are different groups identified by name, educational needsanalysed, and strategies to meet the diverse learning needs included in school planningand teaching/learning methods used at school level?8. Are schools accessible?a) In terms of physical access: building codes enforced, progressive policy to make allnew schools accessible and renovate old schools.b) Availability of accessible teaching and learning materials, and methods to cater tolanguage and communication needs, deaf sign language interpretation, braille andcomputers for blind children, etc.Education for All: Reaching the Unreached
