Inclusive education implies

Inclusive education means ensuring that no child is left behind, so every learner regardless of ability is educated together.

Ensuring the learning outcome of every child is a part but narrower than the whole aim.

Including the disabled in the mainstream is one element, not the full meaning.

Compulsory education below 14 years describes the Right to Education, not inclusion as such.

Inclusion places children with special needs in regular classrooms with support.

The Salamanca Statement of 1994 is the landmark charter for inclusive education.
