This chapter discusses South Africa’s Inclusive Education Policy. The explorative nature underpinning this chapter is an in-depth retrospective evaluation of the Inclusive Education Policy through a qualitative secondary analysis of data generated with grade 10 learners and School Management Team leaders (SMTs) in two rural schools in KwaZulu-Natal province. Drawing from collages, a participatory visual method, and focus group discussions (FGD), data were generated and analyzed. Through the collages and FGDs, the School Management Teams and learners expressed their needs and concerns about how to effectively address the policy mandates and recommendations and the needs of school-age children impacted by HIV and AIDS.
