The case for inclusive learning systems: building more inclusive learning systems in Australia

In recent decades, educators in Australian schools and not-for-profit organisations have shown great creativity in keeping young people connected to learning. What is new is that particularly over the past two decades, governments at state and federal level have increasingly had a strategic focus on what works at a systemic level for keeping young people connected to learning. It is now possible to recognise that a growing number of states have been able to create alternative models of supporting practice on the ground, tailored to their own constituency and conditions. In a fast-moving field of activity, this report provides a current, national and systemic overview of just some of these developments in Australian education.
