Description - Equality and Diversity in Education 1: Experiences of Learning, Teaching and Managing Schools by Felicity Armstrong

What grounds are accepted for the inclusion and exclusion of students from the educational mainstream? How can appropriate support be guaranteed for children, young people and adults who experience difficulties in learning, who are disabled or who experience social or other kinds of difficulty? This volume explores experiences of learning, attempts to develop inclusive curricula and the management of school-based provision. Each of the three parts is designed to bring alive and critically discuss, the personal experience of other people, the detail of innovative curriculum developments and the complexity of issues facing educational providers in the 1990s. Part one contains a range of personal and professional experiences; part two turns to curricular issues; and part three focuses on the problems facing senior teachers and governors in schools. This volume and her sister, Equality and Diversity 2: National and International Contexts for Practice and Research , are readers for the Open University Course "Developing Inclusive Curricula: Equality and Diversity in Education" (E829).
The majority of the chapters are published here for the first time, reflecting a wide range of perspectives and interests in educational issues, and including both experienced and first-time writers. The two books in the series will appeal to teachers, non-teaching assistants and other school-based staff, parents, disabled people and those who have experienced difficulties in learning, social and health workers, and those working for voluntary organisations.
