SpeciaLink Child Care Inclusion Practices Profile
and Principles
Scale
The SpeciaLink Inclusion Child Care Practices
Profile and the SpeciaLink Child Care Inclusion Principles
Scale are tools for assessing inclusion quality
in child care centres. Used together, they provide a picture
of sustainable and evolving
inclusion quality — an emerging issue as more children
with special needs attend community-based centres and as inclusion
pioneers
leave their centres and a new generation of directors and early
childhood educators take on the challenge. These documents
are available
by request.
