Secondary education, especially within its compulsory period in Ghana, aims at promoting the fundamental development of the individual. This being so, the extension of the compulsory education and the establishment of a basic and common education for all the citizens necessarily implies a non-selectivity principle and its non-discriminative condition. This means the implementation of a curricular inclusive arrangement that offers various learning opportunities and experiences to all the students. This is why we consider teacher training is a key element, for it can provide our teachers with the knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary so they can engage in the inclusive process. This article is a review on both the catering for diversity in secondary education as well as on the teacher training process, which is held responsible for offering that educational answer.
