ABSTRACT
Inclusion looks different in every school. You need to find strategies that work in your classroom with your pupils. Inclusion is not a fixed state; it's a process that will take time to achieve. It is about continuous school improvement rather than a sudden change. Inclusion has to work for each teacher in each individual classroom. By finding out what works for you and ditching what does not, you can celebrate and enjoy the triumphs, and learn from strategies that turn out to be less successful. Teachers are not expected to put everything in place overnight, but to begin to look for new ways of including those children with a more diverse range of needs. The ideas and suggestions that follow come from many years of working with pupils with severe learning difficulties in special and mainstream schools.
