This book explores and critically examines the field of special educational needs (SEN) and inclusion, overviewing the main ideological and political debates that have helped shape its historical development. Section 1 defines the concepts of special needs, SEN, and disability, examining how provision is maintained in the UK, and looks at how the attitudes of teachers, parents, and non-disabled children have affected the inclusion of disabled children. Section 2 considers the historical development of SEN and the emergence of inclusive education within England, and offers a comparative analysis of the legislation and practices governing its delivery within various education systems. Section 3 examines the major legislation surrounding SEN and inclusive education. It outlines how the Special Educational Needs Code of Practice is put into operation, and considers major legislation such as the Disability Discrimination Act, the Special Educational Needs and Disability Act, and the Every Child Matters Agenda. Vickerman is head of research for Physical Education, Sport, Dance, and Outdoor Education at Liverpool John Moores University. Hodkinson is affiliated with Liverpool John Moores University.
