Resource details
A planning workbook for headteachers, SENCOs and governors preparing the inclusion strategy statement that schools receiving the Inclusive Mainstream Fund must publish on their website by 31 December 2026. It covers the thinking that comes before the DfE template, so you can copy your answers straight in.
What's inside
- What the DfE requires, taken from the IMF conditions of grant 2026 to 2027 and the guidance on developing an inclusion strategy
- The seven principles of inclusion that every funded activity must fit
- A timeline to 31 December
- Worksheets for barriers, activities and budgeted costs, intended outcomes, a spending check, a consultation record and the review of the previous year
- A sign-off checklist for governors and trustees
Format: editable Word document and a PDF. A planning aid, not the statutory template.
