Why is inclusive education so important?


Listen Later

This month we’re talking about the value of inclusive education, both in the UK and around the world.  

We hear from disability rights advocate Maria Njeri about the difference inclusive education would have made to her school experience. We also chat to Kyle Eldridge to get his views on integrated schools in the UK and catch up with Orpa Ogot who works on the Girls’ Education Challenge Transition programme in Kenya. She tells us how they’ve been keeping children learning throughout the pandemic.
