Inclusive schooling: Children with special educational needs provides statutory guidance on the new Inclusion Framework introduced by the SEN and Disability Act 2001 (SENDA). This strengthens the rights of children with and without statements of special educational needs to access mainstream education.

In addition to the detailed guidance, a summary of key points for governors is available in the publication Inclusive schooling: Governors' information sheet.

Both publications are available from the TeacherNet SEN Publications directory (see Web Links below)
