Shaunna McLean is conducting a research project for her Doctorate in Educational Psychology at University of East Anglia.
This research project will look at the experiences of inclusion, for children and young people, aged 9-16, with Down Syndrome in mainstream education. The study will involve speaking to children and young people with Down Syndrome, about their experiences of school. She will also be asking participants to give her a tour of their school, during which they will be asked to take pictures of places that are important to them within school. She will also observe one of their lessons and a breaktime.
Shaunna is reaching out to parents/carers of children and young people, aged 9-16, with Down Syndrome, in mainstream primary or secondary schools to participate in the study.
If your child or young person is interested in taking part, and you are happy for them to do so, follow this link to register your interest: https://forms.office.com/e/gkCMeZ0kV1
