Are we truly building inclusive classrooms, or are we creating environments where both teachers and pupils are being set up to fail?

It asks the tough questions:
Is inclusion helping or harming the children it’s supposed to support? Are we sacrificing the quality of education for the sake of policies that aren’t working?
If you’re ready to challenge the status quo and rethink what inclusion should really look like in schools, this resource will spark the critical conversations that need to happen now.
