What children's perspectives tell us about inclusion

Introduction

The underlying premise of this unit is that we are all experts in different ways, and that our different experiences and understandings are of value. Inclusive education is presented and discussed as under construction, both in educational settings and as a concept. The materials to be found in this unit are largely rooted in the social model of disability and human/disability rights frameworks.

This material is from our archive and is an adapted extract from Childhood and Youth learning from each other (E243) which is no longer taught by The Open University.
