Inclusion Development
Unit
The Inclusion Development service
is committed to ensuring that all Newham children have access to
education, whatever their needs may be.
This includes ensuring that governors and staff are
aware of inclusion issues and keep up to date of developments in
this area. We are committed to an education policy that enables all
children and young people to participate in mainstream school
life.
We also facilitate training of staff working with
Special Educational Needs pupils. Our inclusion education
programs enable more than 95% pupils with SEN to attend mainstream
school.
