Inclusive Education Into Practice

The Dutch Inspectorate of Education and the Standing International Conference of Inspectorates (SICI) together conducted an international and national comparative analysis about inclusive education. Goal of this analysis is to learn from European jurisdictions and Dutch regional educational authorities about how the educational and supervisory system is organized with regard to inclusive education and what this means for the individual child with special educational needs (SEN) in these specific regions.

The analysis focusses on primary and secondary education and
on the development towards inclusive education in six
European jurisdictions that are member of the Standing
International Conference of national and regional Inspectorates
of education (SICI). The six participating jurisdictions were
Ireland, Denmark, Flanders (Belgium), North Rhine-Westphalia
(Germany), Serbia and The Netherlands. In addition, the same
analysis was done in seven Dutch regional educational
authorities.
