This book contributes significantly to the conversation about
inclusion as a critical component of school culture. Educating All
recounts Christopher McMaster's experience as a critical
ethnographer in a school community, given the task of not only
studying the institution's culture, but of creating change as well.
The school used a whole-school framework known as the Index for
Inclusion, which addressed students identified as having "special"
or learning needs. The outcome of this process was the realization
that the faculty and the system were not adequately providing
optimum services to "special needs" students. By incorporating the
special needs unit into a larger department and by utilizing it as
a teaching center rather than a classroom, the staff and school
leadership were able to produce a better alignment of value and
practice and to provide a re-interpretation of just what is meant
by "mainstream".
