**Winner of the nasen Special Educational Needs Academic Book award
2008** There is an enduring and widespread perception amongst
policy makers and practitioners that certain groups of children, in
particular those who find learning difficult, have a detrimental
effect on the achievement of other children. Challenging this basic
assumption, Achievement and Inclusion in Schools argues that high
levels of inclusion can be entirely compatible with high levels of
achievement and that combining the two is not only possible but
essential if all children are to have the opportunity to
participate fully in education. Packed with vivid case studies that
explore the benefits and tensions for children and schools, this
book sets out to answer the following questions: What is the nature
of the relationship between the inclusion of some children and the
achievement of all? Are there strategies which can raise the
achievement of all children, whilst safeguarding the inclusion of
others who are more vulnerable? What changes can a school make to
ensure high levels of inclusion as well as high levels of
achievement for all its children? Achievement and Inclusion in
Schools offers an up-to-date analysis of current issues, provides
practical guidance for practitioners and policy-makers, and will be
of interest to anyone passionate about inclusive education.
