At the start. When you can push ideas about with the least risk, before a cent is spent, before a single minute is wasted in construction. 


It seems strange, but one of the key insights emerging from applied research examining effective inclusive learning spaces is that there are key knowledge-holders not being consulted at the time of design. That those with on the ground knowledge of the impact of space, equipment, layout and everything in between, are not at the table at this critical juncture. At the point where their influence could be biggest. 


We have collected three influential voices to share insights and aspirations, disasters and tips for the design and use of learning spaces for inclusive education. 


Lew Schrale - APA Paediatric Physiotherapist and Special Education Teacher


Bec Davis - Teacher at Vision Services


Sonja Vanderaa - Independent Trauma and Behaviour Consultant

Contemporary designers might think of it placemaking, but this is inadequate in a traditional framing. Still, it will need to do. Architecture, and education architecture in particular, is exploring its role in giving expression to indigenous culture. Can it honour Country? How can it be guided by knowledge holders? Most importantly for non-Indigenous listeners, how might this be done with care, responsibility and sensitivity?
