Abstract

Outcome based education is an educational theory that bases each part of an educational system around goals. By the end of the educational experience, each student should have achieved the goal. Disability is not a fault of anyone and it is the inherent right of every child to get educated.

Each student in the class being different, conventional teaching strategies cannot cater to the purpose and success of inclusive education. The teachers in inclusive schools have to consider a wide range of learning modalities while designing instruction. This article discusses the pedagogical processes considered for effective learning outcomes in biology of secondary school students with special needs. Teachers have to be trained properly in order to cater the individual differences in their classrooms. The teacher pupil ratio should be maintained according to the number of children with special needs in a classroom. Universities and department of education has to undertake more research activities to develop instructional materials for an inclusive classroom.
