The Inclusion Illusion: How children with special educational needs experience mainstream schools

Rob Webster

Based on findings from the UK's largest observation study of pupils with high-level SEND, this book reveals that their experience of school is characterised by separation and segregation, and the effect of this on the quality of their education. It suggests why a more authentic form of inclusion is needed, and how it might be achieved.
