Why is it important to use inclusive language when communicating in a class forum?

• Answer:

  It is important to use inclusive language when communicating in a class forum because language is often used to get one's point across. It is important for all the pupils to feel included. If you fail to differentiate and just pitch your lesson at the average pupil those who are quicker learners will quickly feel they are being talked down to and get bored. Those who are less able will fail to grasp some of the meanings of the terms used, feel excluded, and are then likely to become disruptive.
