ALLFIE’s manifesto for Inclusive Education is out

Lambeth-based national campaigning charity ALLFIE (the Alliance for Inclusive Education) has just published its manifesto. It believes that the continued exclusion of disabled people from mainstream schools, colleges and universities is not acceptable and that there is real, growing and unified support for a right to be included in mainstream education.

The manifesto has six demands for changes which would make a huge impact in ensuring that disabled learners have a legal and human right to participate in mainstream education. The six demands are that:

- All disabled learners have the legal right to attend mainstream courses in mainstream education settings.

- All disabled learners have the legal right to individualised support.

- Education buildings to be made accessible to all disabled learners.

- All mainstream course curricula are accessible to and inclusive of disabled learners.

- All education assessments and accreditations are inclusive.

- Disability equality training is compulsory for all education professionals and staff.
