Abstract
This chapter traces the development of the United Nations’ policy Education for All since 1990, noting the struggles that have gone on to ensure that it is, in fact, concerned with all children, whatever their characteristics and circumstances. In so doing, it points to the need to focus particular efforts on the most disadvantaged learners to ensure that no one is overlooked. In addressing this global challenge, the chapter draws on findings from the author’s own research in order to suggest an overall agenda for change, focusing on national policies for promoting equity and the development of inclusive school practices.
