Coproduction, inclusive practice and wellbeing Inclusive practice is making sure that everyone is included and accepted as an equal. Co-production is working together on something in equal partnership from the start. The law says that children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), and their parents and carers, should have all the information and support they need to take part in decisions being made about them.
