Rezensionen

"Mel Ainscow draws on lifetime of passionate and unrelenting commitment to inclusion, equity and professional collaboration to write a book that is One for the Ages. He shows how we can and should achieve inclusion by adhering to a small number of general principles but with total respect for the unique nature of every country, culture and context in which these principles are applied. This is the masterwork of inclusion in education."

- Andy Hargreaves, Boston College and University of Ottawa

"An inspirational must-read for anyone concerned with equity in education, this book maps the struggles, the learning, and the insights of a leading thinker in the field."

- Lani Florian, University of Edinburgh

"Mel Ainscow has carried out the best and most thorough work I know on grounded system change. He has the examples, he has led the work, he has worked with practitioners, policy makers, communities and students. Read Developing Inclusive Schools carefully and fully: it contains a treasure trove of insights."

- Michael Fullan, OISE/University of Toronto



"Developing Inclusive Schools is a milestone in understanding how inclusive education developments have evolved during the last three decades. It not only maps and addresses challenges, dilemmas and tensions, but paves the way forward towards more inclusive education systems across the world."
