CETT for Inclusive Learning

Guidelines for Publications

The development of publications is a key feature of the CETT for Inclusive Learning (CETTIL) programme. The following are the aims of this part of the CETTIL action plan:

1. To provide support to participants in producing materials for publication.
2. To share examples of good practice and to foster innovation and creative ideas in inclusive provision.
3. To create a resource for participants in developing inclusive policy and practice.
4. To disseminate the work of CETTIL to a wider audience.
5. The aims will be realised through the CETTIL website www.cettil.org.uk

Guidelines:

1. The overall principle is inclusion in terms of authors, types of material, production of materials and audience.
2. The type of material for publication will be as broad as possible and include: the work of learners, curriculum documents, art work, video clips, academic papers and policy statements.
3. Accessibility to as large and varied an audience as possible is crucial to the principle of inclusion, including the use of accessible language.
4. Support will be provided as appropriate to anyone interested in developing materials for publication.
5. All submitted material will be supported and considered for publication.
6. The inclusion of learners with learning difficulties and/or disabilities in both producing material for publication and accessing publications is fundamental to the action plan. This is to be encouraged, facilitated and supported.
7. Our language policy is that we will never knowingly publish materials which contain offensive or disabling language.
