The objective of this research was to investigate what is happening in the name of social inclusion in primary education in South Australia, and with what effects, in order to inform SAPPA policy on social inclusion.

The expected outcomes of the research were stated as follows:

2. Exploration of the challenges primary educators are facing in implementing the policy and the surfacing of particular issues as a consequence.
3. Identification of what social inclusion strategies are working well and why?
4. What recommendations SAPPA could make in terms of policy development, resourcing, teaching and other services, community relationships etc.
