Abstract: Inclusivity in education ensures that each child can participate fully and develop in a shared learning environment. This type of education provides every child a fair opportunity to develop and succeed in school. Hence, fostering diversity in education can be viewed as a method that unites learners with different requirements in a common learning space. It advocates for a schooling system that caters to all individuals, irrespective of their distinct characteristics. This review paper attempts to identify the target groups of inclusion at the Elementary level of education, to find out the developments in the area of inclusive learning and also suggest measures for improving the implementation of equitable learning practices at the Elementary level. Information presented in the present paper has been collected from national policies on education, UNICEF reports on inclusive education, the CBSE handbook on inclusive education and the UN World Declaration on Education for All. Some journals and e-content relating to inclusive education have also been referred. Policy perspectives of NEP 2020 with regard to inclusion have also been discussed. Suggestions with regard to inclusion at the elementary level have also been presented in this study.
