• Develop effective individualized support strategies that promote learning success and emotional well-being.
• Implement principles of inclusive education that embrace diverse learners rather than isolate them.

• Collaborate effectively with parents, teachers, therapists, and support professionals to build a holistic approach to education.
• Explore global perspectives on disability awareness, learning rights, and inclusive education policies.
