==Description==
'''Inclusion''' in [[education]] is an approach to educating [[students]] with special educational needs. Under the inclusion [[model]], students with special needs spend most or all of their time with non-disabled students. Implementation of these [[practices]] varies. Schools most frequently use them for selected students with mild to severe special needs.

Inclusive [[education]] differs from previously held notions of ‘[[integration]]’ and ‘mainstreaming’, which tended to be concerned principally with disability and ‘special educational needs’ and implied learners changing or becoming ‘ready for’ or deserving of accommodation by the mainstream. By [[contrast]], inclusion is about the child’s [[right]] to [[participate]] and the school’s [[duty]] to [[accept]] the child. Inclusion rejects the use of special schools or classrooms to separate students with disabilities from students without disabilities. A premium is placed upon full [[participation]] by students with disabilities and upon [[respect]] for their [[social]], civil, and educational [[rights]].

Fully inclusive schools, which are rare, no longer distinguish between "general education" and "special education" programs; instead, the school is restructured so that all students learn [[together]].[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclusion_%28education%29]
