Hi Kanchan On one hand we demand inclusion in all respects including inclusive education, inclusive employment, however once in, why should we start demanding exclusive staff rooms. If we believe in true philosophy of inclusion, then perhaps being with every one in the common staff room would be the right decision. Also this would promote further inclusion and acceptance by fellow teachers, else you remain excluded. This is promoted despite the fact that special schools and exclusive rooms may be very convenient to the users! regards
