This article presents the emergence of inclusive education in Special Needs teaching, the ideals it fosters, and the need to reform educational systems and school practices, so that it becomes a reality. To this end, we reviewed developments in mainstreaming, negative effects caused by the deficit model and the need to develop national inclusive policies and support systems at a local level that promote school improvement and the development of good practices in a school open to everyone.
