The new UCP of Central Florida East Orange / Bailes Campus will be one of the only schools that focus on arts, technology and inclusion in Central Florida and the nation. It’s the new vision for education that mirrors society in bringing together people and ideas that was separated before. And with more than 180 children currently on a waiting list, the new center will allow us to triple the number of children served.

What is Inclusion?
Inclusive education happens when all children, both with and without special needs, participate and learn together in the
same classroom.
Inclusive education
happens when the school adapts to the
needs of the student rather than the student
adapting to the needs of the school.
Inclusive education happens where children are educated together.
In an inclusive setting, positive academic and social outcomes happen
for all children involved.
Innovation and Technology Partnerships
Innovation at the new center isn’t limited to its inclusive model or the integration of art and technology into the curriculum. In partnership with the University of Central Florida, UCP will also develop and research proven and promising practices of inclusive education and therapy options for children with and without disabilities to become a replicable national model.
