dc.description.abstract | Inclusion has since the UNESCO conference in 1994, been the global denominator and
ideology of most western societies school policies and practises. The debate has mostly focused on
how to respond to and facilitate education for the diversity of pupils within the public school. In
Norway, the debate about inclusion has not captured the same attention, and instead the focus has
been on how to understand and implement the principle of adapted education. The principles of
inclusion and adapted education have common denominators, implying sensitivity and responsibility
towards the multiplicity of pupils. In educational settings inclusion also comprises that schooling
from its outset should be designed with pupils’ diversity in mind.
The aim of the paper is to discuss inclusive education with a particular view to Norwegian
education and special education policy and practise. The paper describes and discusses educational
trends from the establishment of the Norwegian compulsory school in the first half of the 1900
sensory up to current challenges in the latter years. In the end of the paper, some current challenges
regarding the implementation of an inclusive school are discussed in the light of findings showing a
growing body of pupils advised to special education. | en_US |
