Developing Inclusive Teacher Education

This book explores the way teachers are prepared for inclusion in their initial and in-service teacher education. Using examples of practice from the schools and teaching institutions of the UK, Norway, New Zealand, Australia and the USA, the contributors use a valuable comparative approach to explore crucial questions, such as how ideas and practices of inclusive schools are reflected in the curriculum of teacher education, and what tools teachers need to implement inclusion.
