Schools, as our most flexible socio-political institution, have absorbed the emotional and behavioral impact of societal shifts from exclusion to inclusion. The current state of the education sector is complex and the population of students with high and complex needs is increasing steadily. If teachers and schools are responsible for inclusion, they must be equipped in the practice and pragmatics of inclusion, not simply its ideology and theory.

bower(schools) can help education staff navigate these shifts using the bower(method).
