Video transcript
Visual: Rosie walking towards camera with her rollator through a school. She is wearing a shirt that says “The future is accessible.”
Audio: Upbeat and powerful music fades in and plays through video.
Rosie speaking: This Federal Election, we need real action for children and young people with disability! Let’s talk about one key issue: Inclusive Education.
Visual: Fast-paced sequence of video: a young girl using her wheelchair, two kids learning technology, and a young person with one arm speaking on a video call. The text “Inclusive Education” remains on screen.
Visual: Rosie sitting on her rollator at the bottom of a set of stairs.
Rosie speaking: Right now, the education system isn’t working for disabled students. They face segregation, discrimination, and barriers that stop them from learning like everyone else. We need to change that. Here’s how!
Visual: Text appears on screen and is read.
Voiceover Rosie:

Visual: Rosie turns and speaks to camera, close up.
Rosie speaking: Inclusion isn’t a ‘nice-to-have’ – it’s a RIGHT! And guess what? Inclusive education benefits EVERYONE.

Rosie speaking: This election, we demand action. Share this video, tag your MPs, and tell them: Inclusive Education NOW!
