Inclusion and equality: Evaluating education for pupils with additional support needs in mainstream schools aims to help schools meet the requirements laid down in the Standards in Scotland's Schools Act (2000) which places a statutory duty on education authorities to develop all children to their fullest potential.
It is one of a series of guides on self-evaluation and builds on advice given in the HMIE publications How good is our school? and Quality management in education.
The guide has defined children with additional support needs as those who 'experience barriers to their learning, achievement and full participation in the life of the school'. It uses 19 quality indicators to answer five key questions relating to the quality of the teaching, learning, support, environment and management of services for them.
