A scheme has been launched by the government aimed at welcoming, welcoming and supporting children in education.
Jersey said its vision would help children “achieve their full academic and social potential.”
Key points in the plan include respect and value, well-being and support, and collaboration with family and professionals.
Sean O'Regan, group director for education, added that Mr Jersey had big ambitions but could do more.
He said: “We need to put inclusion at the heart of what we do. Jersey has a lot of good things to offer. It's the best place in the world to grow up for some children, but we also need to ensure that it's for all children. We are pushing for that to be the case.” . ”
The United States said this vision was developed in collaboration with parents, caregivers, educators, children and young people, and institutions that work with children and young people.
The launch event featured bilingual book readings in Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, French and Geria, and was attended by stalls from various agencies and charities.
A sign language choir, including students from St Clement's School and Les Landes School, performed at the launch event.
O'Regan said the performance helped the children feel acknowledged.
“I think they're listening. I think they've helped produce what we've done today. The listening that's happening at the nursery level, the school level, the university level. “Things need to be done at the top level,” he said.
Eight-year-old Oliver, who has been using sign language since he was young because his parents are deaf, said sharing his skills with his schoolmates was “just fun, it was a lot of fun”.
Nine-year-old Bella said the day was “really fun” as it was “inclusive”, while eight-year-old Rory said she enjoyed learning “all the new signs”.
