Promoting Inclusion and Equity in Education: Lessons from International Experience

Inclusion and equity are increasingly seen internationally as major priorities for the development of education policies and practices. This presentation will draw on Mel Ainscow’s extensive experience of working with education systems in different countries to address the challenges involved. The use of evidence as a means of stimulating collaboration and experimentation is seen as a central strategy. This has important implications for the contributions of practitioners, school leaders and support staff.

With Mel Ainscow, Emeritus Professor, University of Manchester, Professor of Education, University of Glasgow, and Adjunct Professor at Queensland University of Technology.
