Answer

A

Explanation

As inclusive schools care for and teach all children together. Teachers must find ways to respond to individual differences, which is a gain for all children. By teaching all children in common classes, inclusive schools want children to experience diversity as a given fact, which can contribute to a less discriminating society. Inclusive education understands diversity and the differences of individuals as an important resource.
