Theories of Inclusion, Theories of Schools: deconstructing and reconstructing the ‘inclusive school’

Abstract: The Government's recent commitment to inclusive education aligns English policy in special needs education with the international inclusion movement. One of the founding assumptions of that movement is that mainstream schools can and should develop structures and practices which will allow them to respond more fully to the diversity of their pupil populations. This article reports a study of four comprehensive schools seeking to develop in this more inclusive direction. It finds, however, that their attempts w… Show more

“…Dépassant un point de vue purement quantitatif qui ne ferait de l'inclusion qu'une forme particulièrement poussée d'intégration (les enfants sont plus souvent dans un milieu plus ordinaire), les chercheurs et praticiens défenseurs de la péda-gogie de l'inclusion ont progressivement pris conscience que cette approche suppose un changement paradigmatique, transférant à l'école la difficulté et les besoins particuliers de l'élève (clark, Dyson, Millward et Robson, 1999). Dans cette perspective, la difficulté et le handicap n'existent que par rapport à un contexte social.…”

“…Successful mainstream inclusion practices are documented for students with physical and intellectual difficulties, but students with social and emotional needs, although initially included, have been unsuccessful due to inadequate administrative processes, which attempt to balance the competing rights of different student groups (Clark, et al, 1999). Students with social and emotional needs have been excluded due to the perceived and observed detrimental effects of their presence on the safety and welfare of other students (Visser, Cole, & Daniels, 2002).…”

“…In England, according to Clark et al (1999) integration had been the forerunner of including students with diverse needs within mainstream education in the 1970s and 1980s. Mainstream schools attempted to cater for more diverse student needs and reduce the amount of segregation.…”

“…The first is the perspective of inclusive education within discourses on special educational research and provisions (Clark, Dyson, & Millward, 1995;Thomas & Loxley, 2001) and the second is a sociocultural perspective within Vygotskian as well as neoVygotskian tradition. In the first vein, the last two decades of research shows not only the lack of well founded and sound theories in special education (see, e.g., Clark et al, 1995;Emanuelsson, 1998Emanuelsson, , 2000aEmanuelsson, , 2000bPersson, 1998;Skrtic, 1991Skrtic, , 1995 but also the crisis in special education knowledge. In particular, the overrepresentation of minority pupils in special educational programmes has been a cause for concern and debateable issue.…”
