Exceptional education, otherwise known as special education, has been plagued with deficit thinking and practices that have limited the growth of students from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Because of this, marginalized students have often been placed inappropriately in more restrictive learning environments early in education, resulting in placing limitations on these students based on perceptions.
Practitioners have the power to implement actions across all educational levels to be inclusive and avoid harmful practices and experience of these students, including neurodivergent students, to properly place and teach them based on ability by challenging deficit thinking. But what steps and designs help achieve this goal?
