Full Description
Who's in? Who's out? Who decides? What are we going to do about inclusive education? What kind of world do we want our children to live in? How might education help us to achieve that vision for our children?
In Who's In? Who's Out? What to Do about Inclusive Education, a group of respected international scholars come together to think about education at a momentous time in global history, where the world has fractured, people are displaced and we search for new research, education programmes and political leadership to restore social cohesion and rebuild school systems that may claim to be an apprenticeship in democracy.
This book highlights the challenges inclusive education researchers take on in working to dismantle barriers involving access, presence, participation and success in education.
