“…Attendance is highest among the white population group and lowest among black African students (DHET 2015). These disparities stem from unequal provisions that were prevalent across all ministries, including education, during the apartheid era, which was marked by widespread exclusion in the areas of race, gender and disability (Pather 2011).…”

The 4-A Framework suggests that all inclusive education systems must be available, accessible, acceptable and adaptable. South Africa is committed to establish an inclusive education system that does not exclude students with disabilities. South African university disability policies translate the imperatives of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities into institutional mandates that govern the implementation of inclusive education.The aim of this study was to determine to what extent disability policies at South African research intensive universities addressed the markers contained in the 4-A Framework. The framework was reworked and operationalised for the higher education context, and expanded to include a fifth marker, namely affordability. A deductive thematic analysis, using a protocol based on the five markers, was used to analyse these policies. Results indicate that, of the five markers, affordability was not sufficiently addressed. Various disclaimers also limit policy provisions related to other markers.

Abstract:With the continuous development of computer technology and progress, the development of computer programs is more and more in-depth. In the sports specialty enrollment examination in Colleges and Universities, basketball special technology tests including the run-up Mogao test, basketball court four lines to and fro running test, one minute and three points shooting test and comprehensive technical testing. In the traditional sports test of basketball, the need to be equipped with a large number of human and material resources, and this test there are a lot of man-made factors resulting from the unfairness. In order to ensure the test fair, fair and fast, accurate. In this paper, a set of procedures for the special test of basketball is designed by computer assembly language; hope to provide help for the test and training of basketball players.

“…Yet Sayed and Carrim (1998) highlight discrepancies in post-apartheid policies that had the potential to undermine the overarching aim of the new constitution to democratise the education system, and so to make it more, rather than less, exclusionary. Accounts of the inclusion of disabled children in education in South Africa indicate that there is a gap between rhetoric and reality and that deficit models predominate (Pather 2011), despite the progressive national policies and a much more equal relationship between external donors and South African practitioners. Even in this apparently ideologically driven political process, developing a more inclusive education system is far from straightforward.…”

Education has come to be a key focus of the humanitarian response of international agencies in countries affected by conflict, but disabled children tend to be excluded from these education initiatives. Yet the reconstruction process can provide governments with a unique opportunity to reassess the way they educate disabled children, and consider moving towards more inclusive educational approaches. Indeed, crises can be seen as opportunities to 'build back better'. A review of the limited literature is followed by an account of a disability study in Iraq, and reflections on the way forward for collaborative research on educational reconstruction in post-conflict societies.
