See the person, not just their impairment Try not to make assumptions Unsure or need to know something? Ask! Accept what the disabled person says about themselves and their impairment Remember not all conditions are visible Remember that fair does not mean we all get the same it means getting what we need.

Transcript- Wheelchair Scene- The man is a wheelchair user and he is on a busy high street. He is the man speaking to camera. I don’t want your pity, your sympathy. I don’t want you staring at me constantly and saying aahh, the poor disabled guy in the wheelchair, what a shame. I don’t want you to feel the need to turn away from me either. Like everyone from time to time I need a helping hand- I’ll admit it. I don’t want you to think that you have to treat me differently because of it. And in case you were thinking this is an appeal asking for money? No I don’t want your money. All I want is maybe next time …and you need the time and you need to know how to get somewhere or you need to know the time…instead of asking him (indicates to an able bodied person walking by) why not ask me?

Of all the disadvantaged groups in society, the disabled are the most socially excluded. What can we do in our school to change this ? We can all do some things and can't do others.

Disability is a matter of perception Martina Navratilova, a successful tennis player said: ‘What we choose to see in people impacts on how we treat them - whether they are disabled or able bodied. If we see the wheelchair first, we may not see the person. If we focus on a person's impairment, how will we ever know them?’
