Inclusive education means disabled and non-disabled children and young people learning together in ordinary pre-school provision, schools, colleges and universities, with appropriate networks of support. The Centre for Studies on Inclusive Education (CSIE) is an independent educational charity, a national centre funded mainly by donations from trusts and foundations. It gives information and advice about inclusive education and related issues. The Centre, set up in 1982, is fully committed to working towards an end to segregated education and is engaged in the following activities:

• Produces and sells booklets on good practice, summaries of law and conference reports, including the Index for Inclusion for schools.
• Answers queries on law and changing practice.
• Works with organisations of disabled adults.
• Supports parent-campaign groups, families and schools.
• Puts in touch those running effective inclusive education with those who wish to do the same.
• Works with a range of organisations by supplying information, submitting evidence, publishing trends and with others committed to inclusive education.

Publications include: Social and educational justice: the human rights framework for inclusion, Inclusive Education - The Right to Belong to the Mainstream, The Inclusion Charter, and many others including examples of good practice, and principle and policy.
