We believe that Inclusive Education is the best way of ensuring that all children have the opportunity to realise their full potential whilst in school.

We see a developing and continuing role for our special schools in providing educational placements and in supporting mainstream inclusion. Inclusion is not just about location, it is about creating an educational framework within which all children and young people have the opportunity to reach their full potential.

The five-year strategic plan set out how we intended to develop Special Educational Needs for children in Wakefield. See 'Downloads' for the full document.
