The need to develop more inclusive classrooms and the growing requirements of students have made inquiry-based learning a hot topic in today's mainstream classrooms. The advantages of inquiry-based learning, types and models of IBL and strategies to use IBL in inclusive classrooms have been discussed in this article. Inquiry-based learning experiences foster the development of skills including communication, organisation, problem-solving and problem-posing, tolerance, grit, self-efficacy, how to find connections, apply new knowledge, attentive listening, and research abilities. For students to learn how to work with others, who believe and act differently than them, inclusive classrooms are essential. In the end, employing inquiry to establish an inclusive learning environment enables teachers to differentiate instruction and students to select their own learning route. An effective teaching strategy that encourages critical thinking, actively engages students, and links classroom knowledge to real-world scenarios is inquiry-based learning for inclusive classrooms. Teachers may establish a dynamic and engaging learning environment that promotes inquiry and in-depth comprehension by putting the models and tactics described into practice.
