Example text

As Warnock (2005) bitterly notes, inclusion is a fundamental concept in government’s thinking about schools, leisure, employment, higher education and the arts and performs, not as policy but as ideology. Analyses of inclusion policy have shed little light on its contradictions and complexities. They either conflate policy and legislation into generalisations about context (eg Riddell and Brown, 1994; Peter, 1995), ignore what Ozga (1990) calls the bigger picture or take the meaning of policy for granted.

Policies themselves are also transient, subject to shifting interpretations – indeed to ‘interpretations of interpretations’ (Rizvi and Kemmis, as cited in Ball 1994, p. 16) – and particular representations. As Ball (1994) notes, sometimes the policy texts are not read in the original but are mediated and delegitimized, for example by teachers unions.

When the MSP who was opening the debate in Parliament invited me to offer any suggestions for her address, I suggested that she challenge this refusal: I am disappointed that ministers felt unable to endorse our definition of inclusive education or to accept the need for a clear and agreed definition. I hope that the minister will inform us of the actions that he will pursue in the light of our recommendations (McGugan, SNP, Scottish Parliament, 2001b, Col. 772). The Minister, in his response, claimed to have accepted the definition of inclusive education after all, but seemed to have missed the important second part of the formula, concerned with removing barriers: A key feature of that approach is to assist education authorities to include children with special educational needs in mainstream education wherever possible and wherever that is appropriate to the needs of the child.
