In their research for the Index for Inclusion, Booth and Ainscow (2011) found that sustainability is one of the values that support the development of inclusive education. Sustainability is one of the future-focused issues recommended by The New Zealand Curriculum, and is the subject of an extensive site on TKI.
The Education for Sustainability website offers information and advice about how to integrate a focus on sustainability into the school curriculum, as well as illustrative case studies. A specific section focuses on the senior secondary school.
