Conductive Education

Educational inclusion of children is the most pressing issue in adapting Conductive Education to the contemporary world. Its close connection to funding and even access to conductive services is particularly marked over the years of compulsory schooling but its influence is already strongly felt in the preschool years and perhaps services for adults may also not remain unaffected.

Conductive Education came from a country and from a time where concepts such as integration and inclusion were not an issue (though with Hungary joining the European Union later this year it seems likely that new rights and new economics will bring inclusion very much to the attention of conductive services in that country too).

Outside Hungary considerable heart-searching and adaptation have resulted from the contradiction between Conductive Education as originally exported from Hungary and the new inclusive order. In different contexts different accommodations have been made.

Conductive Education and educational inclusion need not necessarily be opposed but it can prove very hard to find satisfactory compromises. There are, however, ideas and experiences out there from which others can learn – yet there has been remarkably little published or communicated in other ways to make this more widely known. This page will accumulate links to where other shares what they have thought and done – or simply speculated: there is no need to re-invent the wheel.

Here are a few for starters.
