The aim of this publication is to become an inspiring tool, based on successful experiences that have already been implemented in different European cities, for and by people and professionals involved in the inclusive education field. |

Interview with Wiltrud Thies (Head of the Sophie-Scholl-School) about Inclusive Education in Germany and the projects Sophie-Scholl-School & Sophie-Scholl-Inklusiv |
|
|
|
|
|
“Only when we reach for the stars, does the scope of inclusive school reform becomes clear: We are not talking about an exchange of labels and names, or about sending a couple of students from school X to school Y. Rather, we have a really demanding job ahead of us that will change school entirely. Without quality, it’s all nothing - neither the conditions at school nor the personal efforts.”
