The receiving team may feel pressured by the transition of new students due to philosophical changes, time factors, lack of information regarding the child's diagnosis, and role allocation. The receiving ream may find the following strategies beneficial:
  1. 1. Participate as a team in inservice training on inclusion so that everyone is under the same value and philosophical premise.
  2. Participate in inservice training on the child's specific disability.
  3. Know the transition steps, timelines and responsibilities of the team members, so that the transition team can better plan their schedules and make the appropriate preparations.
  4. Seek inservice training on collaboration and team building skills.
  5. Seek administrative support which includes providing the appropriate amount of staff, supporting the inclusion philosophy, financial resources and time for meetings.
