The 'All of Us' pack contains two documents to promote inclusive policy and practice in childcare and play settings. The Inclusion Checklist for Settings outlines good practice for playworkers, childminders and other childcare staff, and the Inclusion Framework for Local Authorities offers practical ways to move policy into practice in including disabled children.
The initiative is a result of a UK-wide consultation process by KIDSactive, a division of KIDS, and was produced under the Playwork Inclusion Project contract with the Department for Education and Skills in 2002.
Philip Douch, national development manager for KIDSactive and author of 'All of Us', said the pack was put together following consultation with the National Inclusive Play Network co-ordinated by KIDSactive, members of KIDS, providers and LEAs. He said, 'We were driven by producing something that would not sit on the shelf but would be used in everyday practice.'
