Equality, Participation and Inclusion 2: Diverse Contexts

This edited collection by academics and professionals engages with a diversity of learners and learning contexts within the sphere of inclusive education. Exploring questions such as, how to respond to children at risk of exclusion, and what we can learn from each other in enhancing inclusion, this book includes: an examination of issues of gender, ethnicity, class, culture, sexuality and disability; and an examination of inclusive practice in different schools, different classrooms and beyond.

This book is a resource for students, teachers undergoing continual professional development, teaching assistants, inclusion coordinators and social workers.
