The Inclusive Teaching Framework is a starting point to enable teacher educators everywhere to equip teachers with the knowledge and strategies they need to support all pupils to succeed.
We have been developing the framework since 2024.

The Inclusive Teaching Framework connects what teachers already know about what makes good teaching with selected specialist knowledge about five areas of children’s needs:
1. Speech and language
2. Sensory
3. Motor
4. Executive function
5. Social and emotional development
(4/7)
So we’ve drawn together the best available evidence to help teachers understand child development and to build knowledge in specialist areas.

Teachers and leaders consistently tell us they want more help to strengthen support for pupils who face barriers to learning, and to improve special educational needs and disabilities provision.
