Developing an inclusion strategy that works for your school
15 October 2026
This webinar took place on 15 October 2026 and is now available on-demand.
This informative and practical session is designed to help schools get to grips with one of the most pressing compliance requirements in education right now.
As a condition of receiving the Inclusive Mainstream Fund (IMF), schools were required to publish an inclusion strategy on their website by 31 December each year. It was also an explicit focus of Ofsted's new inspection framework, so if schools had not yet established their inclusion strategy, or were keen to ensure it met best practice, this session was for them.
What this session was about:
- Gaining clear, actionable steps to meet Ofsted's inspection criteria for inclusion.
- Gaining support to prepare or amend inclusion strategies in advance of the December deadline.
- Ensuring best practice supporting policies and procedures were in place to enable schools to deliver their inclusion strategy and remain compliant.
