Key Message
Preventing school failure involves developing an inclusive system where all learners – including those at risk of failure and most vulnerable to exclusion – receive a high-quality education.
Fostering Collaboration for Inclusive Education
We learn best when we learn together.
The Agency supports the ministries of education of over 30 member countries as they improve their inclusive education policy and practice. It also co-operates with transnational organisations and engages educators, experts, learners and families to ensure high-quality educational opportunities for all.
