Inclusive education is a core issue on the educational agenda. The importance of this topic is evident in the increasing inequality in learning outcomes, which has broader implications for social cohesion.
Our research programme looks at decision-making in learning trajectories for students with special educational needs, ethnic and social diversity in education, and interorganizational collaboration between schools and youth services to promote well-being and access to meaningful, high quality educational opportunities for all young people.
