supporting inclusion, challenging exclusion
Undertaking & commissioning research
CSIE is currently involved in a small scale research project to explore community cohesion in Bristol and Sough Gloucestershire. The outcomes of this are expected to inform a campaign to promote community cohesion in these areas. For more information please see the project description.
CSIE has for many years monitored the percentages of children and young people placed in "special" schools in Local Authorities across England, based on figures provided by the Government, and has consistently found large variations between and within regions, despite all Local Authorities being bound by the same legislation and national policy on inclusive education. For more information please see our Segregation Trends and Inclusion Trends publications; a limited number of earlier publications are also available on request.
The Centre remains committed to undertaking, commissioning and disseminating research which informs the understanding of inclusion as a human rights issue and sheds light on the shortcomings of segregated schooling. CSIE has recently expanded its research capacity and is looking forward to increased research activity in the future.
