Climb every mountain, cross every stream!

Climb every mountain, cross every stream!

Inclusion in a school reflects humbleness, empathy, compassion in its true sense. No teaching is helpful unless preached especially when it comes to inclusion.

When reflecting back on my days as a teacher I remember Pulkit who came into my class on a wheelchair with his mom Meeta. It would've been easy to deny admission to him in mainstream as inclusion wasn't as accepted as it is today. A classic example of miracles that happen when everyone has an intent, an attitude to accept with open arms topped with an undying spirit of Pulkit and his family to climb every mountain and cross every stream.

Below is an excerpt from Gulf News where there is a special mention of Pulkit passing out of 12th Grade with rainbow colors.

Quote

"At The Millennium School, Dubai, Pulkit Chopra – a student of determination – was the school topper in his favorite subject, Marketing, scoring 99 per cent. His overall percentage was 89. 

Pulkit’s mom, Meeta Chopra, said the school had “taken him in and nurtured him when he got a seat there in KG, in 2007, when no one thought of these considerations”, referring to the then difficulty in getting admission to mainstream schools. 

“He is what he is today because of all the care by the school. Pulkit wants to study business and we’re finalizing plans after his great results,” she added. Unquote
