Spoke at the Westminster Education Forum Policy Conference. Shared ways to strengthen #inclusion via #resourcedprovisions (RPs) & #specialistunits (SUs): national guidance to define them as inclusive; a unified ‘RP Inclusive Service’ model; in-school multi-agency teams; school-based EHCPs.
Very pleased to share our project on resourced provision in mainstream schools, now featured by @publicpolicyuos.bsky.social. The video highlights how this model can promote both academic and social inclusion for students with disabilities and my engagement with policymakers and the public.
🎓 Spotlight: Inclusive Schools

@vstrogilos.bsky.social project shows how resourced provision supports academic and social inclusion for students with disabilities in mainstream schools.

Well done to all PhD students and Postdoc fellows @cri-uos.bsky.social for sharing their research at this year’s Education PGR Conference at the Southampton Education School

#InclusiveEducation #EducationResearch #PGRConference #Inclusion
CRI students & postdocs presented powerful work at the Education PGR Conference Southampton Education School. Huge congratulations to Anthony Chiatu, Anastasia Voulagka, @jo3grace.bsky.social, Catherine de Haas, Elspeth Clark

Your work reflects CRI’s commitment to #inclusion in education & society
The research identified two models of RP:
1️⃣ As a service promoting inclusion within mainstream classrooms
2️⃣ As a space for specialised provision

I will argue for prioritising RP as an inclusive service, recognising that flexibility between the two can support a realistic approach to inclusion.
Although the number of resource provision (RP) classrooms is growing, we still know little about how they function and their impact. In this talk, I’ll share findings from a recent study with three mainstream schools and will introduce a practical toolkit I co-designed with these schools.
This is such a useful list. Thank you @tanialt.bsky.social for pulling it together! A great way to connect with others working in SEND and inclusion. 👏✨

📢 New Consultation Submission

Vasilis Strogilos, Associate Professor at @uoseducation.bsky.social shares key insights on addressing the SEND crisis in mainstream schools.

🔗 Read the full submission and call for evidence here: https://buff.ly/3XhwjOw

#SEND #InclusiveEducation #PolicyImpact
I had so much to say ☺️ and I'm still reflecting on the priorities of this education reform that the SEND system needs!! @uoseducation.bsky.social
I'm also grateful I highlighted the need for research on parents’ challenges to find appropriate provision. Parents of children with SEND have expressed, through their complaints and appeals, that there is a SEND crisis & research needs to address these issues and work towards solutions with them.
By reflecting on the toolkit, schools can consider:
i. How to improve the education of students with SEND and their inclusion in the mainstream school
ii. How to improve school collaboration with external professionals and parents
iii. How to improve educators’ learning about mixed provision
In light of the government's plans to enhance specialist support in mainstream schools, I'm sharing again a resource provision toolkit I co-created with Cleo Barron and Becky Ward & three mainstream schools.
