Inclusive Schools: Educational Pack (Inscool) Year of publication: 2019 Author: Sian Williams Corporate author: British Council | European Union (EU) This toolkit is designed to guide you flexibly, in ways that suit your school, through the start of a journey towards inclusion: improving personal and academic outcomes for all children and young people by focusing on their access to and participation in quality, relevant education. A key point to remember about this journey is that it does not have a final destination. Rather, it is about cumulative change that has, at its heart, a continuous focus on including more children and young people in learning and life at school: “an inclusive school is one that is on the move.”
