Induction Vision Statement:
Induction Vision Statement:
The California Teacher Induction Program in the San Mateo-Foster City School District develops professional educators with pedagogies that lead to universal access.
At the heart of this vision is the principle of universal access, which is grounded in the research on inclusive education. Studies have consistently shown that inclusive education practices, which aim to cater to the diverse needs of all students, significantly benefit not just students with special educational needs but all students (Florian, 2014). This approach requires educators to employ a variety of pedagogical strategies to ensure that learning is accessible to every student, regardless of their background or abilities. The program's emphasis on developing such pedagogies is directly tied to research indicating that teacher quality is a critical factor in students' academic success and engagement (Hattie, 2009).
