Teacher education for inclusive practice – Responding to policy

This article draws on research on the way in one teacher education in England and examines the ways in which the programme prepares student-teachers for inclusive practice in science teaching. We frame our analysis by drawing on aspects of institutional mediation of official policy in teacher education programmes, we need pedagogies of praxis that move beyond (and sometimes against) the official policy definitions of inclusion, and draw instead on a more critical approach to the formation of future professionals.http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/02619768.2015.1031338http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/02619768.2015.103133
