“…Given the presence of children with disabilities in mainstream education classrooms, and because children's attitudes towards people with disabilities develop during their early years, several authors have suggested that efforts must be made in ECE classrooms to foster positive attitudes towards people who differ (Eleftheriou et al 2013;Prater, Dyches, and Johnstun 2006;Werner, Peretz, and Roth 2015). For instance, the inclusion of a regular programme using books about children with disabilities could be an effective strategy for promoting positive attitudes among young children without disabilities (Favazza and Odom 1997).…”

The messages conveyed by visual representations in the early childhood education (ECE) environment are critical to ensuring the success of inclusive practices. Given that anti-bias education permeates and affects everything which takes place in ECE institutions, the challenge for early childhood educators is to think creatively about how classroom walls can be used effectively as part of an educational environment rather than for purely decorative purposes. Our research aimed to examine, through a content analysis of the illustrations, the representation of the body taking into account the different categories as they are portrayed on nine different ECE classroom walls in Spanish public schools. Results show that the ECE walls are teaching gender equality to young children, with no single predominant role for girls or boys, but that they are not contributing to children learning about corporal diversity related to disability and ageing.

“…Attitudes are influenced by a number of factors -physical, intellectual, social and emotional -and the experiences of the individual or the group. Positive attitudes can lead to decisions such as social and psychological acceptance of the person who has a disability (Tervo, Azuma, Palmer, & Redinius, 2002;Werner, Peretz, & Roth, 2015), improving programmes for people who have a disability -educational (Tindall, MacDonald, Carroll, & Moody, 2015); social (Kam & Wong, 2008;Keith, Bennetto, & Rogge, 2015); medical (Boyle et al, 2010;Ryan & Scior, 2014); and occupational (Tsang, Chan, & Chan, 2004;Uysal, Albayrak, Koçulu, Kan, & Aydin, 2014). By contrast, negative attitudes can lead to decisions such as rejection (Daruwalla & Darcy, 2005;Boer & Munde, 2014;Hassanein, 2015), segregation (Keller & Siegrist, 2010;Keith et al, 2015), and degradation (Panek & Jungers, 2008).…”
