Monash University (2016) Pacific Indicators for Inclusive Education (Pacific-INDIE): Case Studies

There are four case studies presented from Fiji, Vanuatu, Samoa and Solomon Islands, the four key countries involved in the development of the Pacific INDIE final set of indicators Each of the four countries have made varying progress towards inclusive education and face their own contextual challenges. Common challenges across all four countries include the translation of policy to practice, the need for ongoing advocacy and the need for training of teaching staff. The case studies highlight how the Pacific INDIE indicators are expected to assist in the implementation by facilitating improved understanding of inclusive education; improving the delivery of quality inclusive education and learning outcomes; and improving monitoring, reporting and accountability. The case studies provide an overview of the local context, progress made on inclusive education, challenges faced to achieving education for all, and the way forward for each country.
