These barriers arise from various factors that prevent the education system from effectively addressing the diversity and specific needs of learners. Consequently, these factors can disrupt the learning process or limit learners' access to educational opportunities. In the module IFP3701, you have learned how to identify and support vulnerable learners. Drawing on the knowledge and skills you have acquired, as well as your experiences during teaching practice or classroom observations in 2025, reflect on the various barriers to learning that different learners faced at the school or in your classroom. Complete the table below to thoroughly reflect on your experiences of a specific learner with each stated barrier.

Other Grade 2 teachers labelled Dante as a troublesome and disrespectful learner, and his parents were frequently called to the school to address his behaviour.
