This paper explores teachers’ experiences in implementing the Language Arts Alternative Pathway to Secondary Education (APSE) curriculum in a rural high school and the factors which influenced its implementation. The study employed a qualitative case study research design. Semi-structured interviews, observations of participants, and document analysis were used to gather data from six purposefully selected members of the Language and Literacy Department. The collected data were analysed using content analysis.

Inclusive, or fair and equitable education, is a widely researched and discussed topic in education. While many strides have been made to address inclusion in education, understanding the phenomenon of teachers’ experiences with the implementation of inclusive educational practices in specific contexts is an important and ongoing area of study. In this phenomenological case study, we explored the experiences of nine primary school teachers in Trinidad (only) regarding inclusive practice. Semi-structured interviews with open questions about inclusive education were used for data collection.
