The paper details the findings of a study which focused on the analysis of the cultural representation ::: of disability in school textbooks in Iran and England. The paper argues that whilst inclusive education ::: could facilitate the incorporating of disabled pupils into mainstream schools, there needs to be deeper ::: examination as to how this transition should take place for children aged 3-13. The paper suggests that ::: in such examinations school textbooks might be of significance in familiarizing non-disabled pupils, ::: teachers and authorities with the issues related to disability and disabled pupils.
