The document discusses developing a world-class inclusive education system. It outlines New Zealand's Special Education 2000 program introduced in 1996 to reform the education system and integrate children with disabilities into mainstream schools in their local communities. The goal was to provide equal opportunities and full membership for students with disabilities through appropriate support services. More recently, inclusive education is understood to include tailored learning and support for all students regardless of ability. Challenges remain in implementing a fully inclusive system, including training teachers, securing funding, and addressing ableism in schools.
