Abstract A review of the literature on integration was commissioned by the Centre for Educational Research and Innovation, Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). This drew on literature from around the globe and was conducted by leading experts in five different countries. The review was organized in terms of categories of disability. This paper introduces the review and sets it in the context of emerging developments in integration. The pros and cons of using a categorical approach are discussed. Attention is drawn to key issues arising in the literature ‐ efficacy, characteristics of effective integration programmes and attitudes to integration. Finally, some pointers for the future development of integration are considered.
