Abstract
What should teacher training be in an inclusive perspective? What are the education, the curriculum and the evaluation for the students with "special educational needs"? What relationship can be established with their families? The SEN category was officially adopted in the Italian school at the end of 2012: years later, the book takes stock of how
the difficult challenge of educating an increasingly diverse school population has been addressed. Through semi-structured interviews carried out with teachers and head-teachers from four Italian regions, we tried to understand the effects of the introduction of the SEN category in terms of educational design and intervention. Identifying the obstacles to inclusion in school is the precondition to imagine new operational possibilities and to articulate new "requests" for educational policies able of supporting teachers in their efforts towards effective inclusion.
