This practical guide from the What to do and what to avoid series is designed for teachers of all school levels. It provides clear, simple, and immediately applicable suggestions and strategies — a real working method — to enhance inclusion in the classroom. The book is divided into 14 chapters, grouped into three main sections, each addressing a different aspect of school inclusion.
