Colin Newton is interviewed as part of a podcast on Restorative Justice as part of ‘The Emotional Curriculum Podcast’.

Here at Inclusive Solutions  we believe that our education system should be fully inclusive of all learners in their local community mainstream settings with the supports they deserve and need. There should be an end to segregation of children and young people in special education and alternative provision settings. All educational opportunities should be of the highest quality for all young people whatever their identity or difference.

We fully endorse the manifesto of the Alliance for Inclusive Education  which focuses on realising the rights of ALL disabled people to mainstream education with all necessary supports and adjustments within an inclusive education system. It sets out six demands, which would move us from the present situation to a fully inclusive education system.
