Warnock Committee

The Warnock Committee was a group established in the UK in 1974 to review and recommend changes to the education system for children with special needs. Its goal was to promote inclusive education by ensuring that children with disabilities or learning difficulties could be educated alongside their peers whenever possible. The committee's recommendations led to significant reforms, including the development of special education provisions and the creation of special schools. Overall, it helped to improve understanding and support for inclusive education practices within the UK, emphasizing that all children should have access to suitable learning opportunities.
