Through practical discussions and collaborative activities, participants reflected on their own approaches and explored ways to adapt lessons to better meet the needs of each student. They also learned how to build supportive classroom communities, where cooperation, empathy, and flexibility play a key role. To introduce themselves and provide more background, they gave a presentation about their schools and explained how the educational models work both in their institutions and in their countries<br><br>During the third and fourth days, some of the course\u2019s highlight moments were the school visits to Istituto Livatino in Ficarazzi and Liceo Giovanni Meli in Palermo, where participants were able to observe inclusion in practice. Visiting a local public school allowed them to see how co-teaching and support systems function in real classroom settings. They sat in on classes as observers, explored the different areas of the school, and met teachers who shared their experiences and challenges, providing authentic insight into how inclusion is nurtured day by day.<br>During the week, the group examined the Italian model of inclusive education, which is internationally recognized for its commitment to integrating students with special needs into mainstream schools. They discussed the experience they had in the schools, and how issues of inclusion are addressed in their own educational contexts. They also reflected on how this approach developed historically and how collaboration between classroom teachers, support teachers, and families ensures that no learner is left behind.<br><br>The programme also emphasized the importance of empathy and growth mindset among educators, exploring co-teaching models and classroom management strategies that promote shared responsibility and self awareness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow
