Twenty years after UNESCO 's S alamanca S tatement enshrined international action for provision for children, youth and adults with special educational needs within the regular educational system, this article presents the current underpinning international and national UK context for developing inclusion in vocational education and training and workplace settings. This context is explored through the justification for developing an EU ‐funded project entitled ‘Towards Inclusive Learning Environments ( TILE )’ and the creation of an associated audit tool, the ′Roadmap for Inclusion′, by a partnership group consisting of universities and VET settings from F inland, the C zech R epublic, E stonia and E ngland.
