It is often said that inclusive education is difficult to define and is a complex term. It is also said that inclusive education means different things to different people. While these propositions are helpful in understanding the complexity of inclusive education, they are also limiting. If inclusive education is complex and not easy to define, how can schools and teachers know how to realise it? Part of this difficulty is that inclusion, the underlying concept of inclusive education, is a broad term with applicability to different contexts. Inclusion is one of these terms that we all know what it means but it can be elusive to define.

Inclusive Education International Policy & Practice

  • Ann Cheryl Armstrong - University of the South Pacific, Fiji
  • Derrick Armstrong - University of Sydney, Australia
  • Ilektra Spandagou - University of Sydney, Australia
  • Description

Bringing together issues of theory, research, policy and practice from both the countries of the South and the North, this ground-breaking book provides a critical discussion of recent developments in the field of inclusive education.

The authors consider developments, both in current thinking about the meaning of inclusion and in terms of policies and practices, in the context of education systems across the world and their differences and inter-relatedness. Topics covered include the increasing pressure on educators to develop a global policy agenda for inclusive education, the individual needs of children, the illusion of inclusivity and the importance of local contexts in determining policy. The book's international perspective illuminates common successes, failures and concerns.

With case studies from Europe, the Caribbean and Australasia, the book also features chapter summaries, questions to facilitate critical thinking and discussion, case studies and suggestions for further reading.

An essential read for anyone studying inclusive education, special educational needs, disability studies, social policy and international and comparative education, this book will ignite debate and enable the reader to develop a deep understanding of the issues.

'This is a book that would be of interest and of value to those completing additional study in education as it contains theory, research, policy and practice and is complimented by chapter summaries, case studies and points for reflection and discussion' -

Learning and Teaching Update

'This is not a feel-good book, even though it hopes and believes in a better education and better lives for all. It is an exquisite balance between the theory, policy and practice of inclusive education. It confronts the difficulties with the term, and the bifurcation in policy and practice of ability/disability, advantage/disadvantage, normality/diversity. It provides a major commentary on education and its restricted and restrictive models, which exclude not just certain bodies but also what they embody' - Trevor Gale, Director, National Centre for Student Equity in Higher Education, University of South Australia

'This book is essential reading for all concerned with the issue of inclusive education, addressing key themes, ideas and existing understandings in a critical, innovatory and informative manner. Through cross-cultural insights and practices, questions of definition, the impact of globalisation and the unacceptable dominance of North over South interests and concerns are carefully highlighted and challenged. The authors have provided a lucid, readable, clear and critical contribution to our knowledge and understanding of this fundamentally important issue' - Emeritus Professor Len Barton, Institute of Education, University of London

'This book offers a powerfully argued and long overdue critique of international developments in inclusive education....SENCOs, or other education professionals who may wish to study or work in international contexts, and developing countries in particular, will learn much from this book' - SENCO Update

A great book, added to the reading list

fabulous book great addition, great resource to keep going back to.

A good book to use for student reading on inclusive education at under graduate level and introductions to Masters if new to the student.

There are critical areas within this book that promote debate. It is a very good read for undergraduates on any education or SEND course. The additional reading at the end of the chapters signpost to further support one's understanding. Overall a well laid out book which is informative.

This book will form part of the revised reading list for this course thanks you

A very clearly set out book: overview of the chapter at the start, discussion questions and points for reflection and a chapter summary orientate the reader well. Key policies and legislation are identified and it is good to have the international perspective, especially for my MA Dyslexia researcha nd practice students. A comprehensive book around inclusion

Offer an international / global/ comparative dimension to the literature in the field, which many other texts do not Good use of Chapter introductions, chapter summaries and discussion activities

Points for discussion and reflection boxes allow students to explore and critically evaluate their own practice. Ideal for students exploring the international perspective.

This book covers the key policies and legislation underpinning inclusive education. With thought-provoking discussion points in each chapter this would be of particular interest to those on initial teacher education courses.

  • Barnes & Noble
  • Description

Alfredo J. Artiles is professor of Culture, Society, and Education in the School of Social Transformation at Arizona State University. His interdisciplinary scholarship examines the ways cultural practices and ideologies of difference mediate school responses to students’ needs. His research also focuses on teacher learning for social justice. Artiles has published extensively for research, policy, and practice audiences in education, psychology, and related disciplines. His work has been published or reprinted in English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, and Hungarian. He is editor of the International Multilingual Research Journal , and edits the book series Disability, Culture, and Equity (Teachers College Press). Artiles has made over 240 professional presentations in the United States, Latin America, Africa, and Europe. He is vice president of the American Educational Research Association’s (AERA) Division on the Social Contexts of Education (2009–2011), an AERA Fellow, a Spencer Foundation/National Academy of Education Postdoctoral Fellow, and a Resident Fellow at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences (Stanford University). His work has been supported by the U.S. Department of Education, the Spencer Foundation, the University of California’s Linguistic Minority Research Institute, Vanderbilt University’s Learning Sciences Institute, and the Motorola Foundation, among others. Elizabeth B. Kozleski holds an EdD from the University of Northern Colorado. She is a professor of Culture, Society, and Education in ASU’s School of Social Transformation. She holds the UNESCO Chair in Inclusive International Research and the national 2011 TED-Pearson award for Teacher Education. Her scholarship theorizes and examines systems transformation in schools; how identity, culture, ability, and practices are negotiated in classrooms and schools; and how schools become purposeful sites for professional learning. Her work has been recognized internationally and includes a coedited (with Alfredo Artiles) book series, Disability, Culture, and Equity (Teachers College Press). Federico R. Waitoller is an assistant professor at the Special Education Department in the College of Education at the University of Illinois at Chicago. He has been awarded the American Educational Research Association Minority Dissertation Fellowship and has presented his work at national and international conferences and research forums. His research agenda focuses on contemporary equity challenges in inclusive and urban education. In particular, he studies the role of institutions and educational reforms in mediating teachers’ identity and learning for inclusive education and the overrepresentation of minority students in special education. Waitoller has published his work in national and international peer-reviewed journals and in edited volumes. His most recent publications (with colleagues) include “The Miners Canary: A Review of Overrepresentation Research and Explanations” ( Journal of Special Education ) and “Teacher Learning for Inclusive Education: Understanding Teaching as a Cultural and Political Act,” ( International Journal of Inclusive Education ).

“The discourse of inclusion in the United States has clung to thin examinations of professional practices and standardized notions of student deficits. This volume offers a thoughtful remedy by exploring the cultural and political dimensions that contribute to the construction of human difference in a variety of local contexts. Appreciated in contextual complexity, inclusion is much more than a question of disability and accommodation. It presses us to question our highest purposes and hopes for schooling.” — Scot Danforth , professor and director, School of Teacher Education, San Diego State University
“At a time when most countries are struggling to develop more equitable education systems, this book provides a rich and valuable resource of ideas. Drawing on accounts of developments in diverse countries, the volume is unusual in the way that it conceptualizes inclusive education as being about a broad range of groups that are vulnerable to marginalization, exclusion, and low achievement.” — Mel Ainscow , professor, University of Manchester, United Kingdom
“This powerful collection of cross-cultural analyses penetrates the dilemma of implementing inclusion and equity within the contexts of vastly differing cultures and histories. Unique in its range of empirical and theoretical perspectives, Inclusive Education persuades us that, while it is impossible to devise a one-size-fits-all model of inclusion, the hallmark of education in the twenty-first century must be a global commitment to the search for equity.” — Beth Harry , professor and chair, Department of Teaching and Learning, University of Miami
