Resource library

The Resource library includes descriptions and links to over 100 external publications (books, websites, DVDs etc). To search for a specific topic (for example “classroom strategies”), enter text in the keywords box and click Search. You can narrow your initial search using one of three filter drop-down menus:

  • “Sections” filters the resources in line with the major content sections of the website.
  • “Resources for” filters the resources according to whether they support you to further your learning, to take action, or to explore others’ stories.
  • “Relevant to” filters the resources in line with the topics covered by the subsections of the website.

Once you have searched, “Refine your results” appears on the right-hand side. This allows you to further narrow your search by adding in extra filters.

    Including Students with High Needs

    Education Review Office (June 2010). Including Students with High Needs. Wellington: Education Review Office.

     In t his report, ERO found that half of schools demonstrated mostly inclusive practices for students with high needs. Thirty percent of schools had some areas of good performance, and 20 percent had few inclusive practices.

    ERO recommended that school staff:

    • use the report’s findings, case studies, self-review questions, and inclusive teaching indicators to review the extent to which students with high needs are included across the school
    • identify where students are not well included and implement a plan to extend the effective practice already in the school.

    UNESCO European Agency for Development in Special Needs Education: Inclusive Education in Action

    UNESCO’s  Policy Guidelines on Inclusion in Education are intended as 'a resource for policymakers, teachers and learners, community leaders and members of civil society in their efforts to promote more effective strategies for reaching the EFA goals' (Foreword, page 4). They highlight the fact that each of us has a part to play in achieving these goals.

    The Guidelines can be used to consider the concept of inclusion and its relationship to EFA. They include checklists on attitudinal change, inclusive curriculum, and teachers and the learning environment that are intended for national policy makers, but might be adapted for use in individual schools.

    The Guidelines sit on the  Inclusive Education in Action website, where you can also find examples of policies, accounts of practice, stories, and videos.
