The CSIE archive has been taking shape through the collaborative work of CSIE staff, a local historian, a consultant archivist, our project co-ordinator and a small team of volunteer archivists.

Ongoing work to create the CSIE archive has been taking place at the University of Bristol, to whom we remain grateful for the hospitality.

Sorting through 42 years of history has been a fascinating process, and we are regularly surprised and excited at the richness of the material coming to light: documents from the creation of CSIE’s Inclusion Charter and the Index for Inclusion, from the drafting of Article 24 (Education) of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, alongside unique artefacts notable to historians of graphic design and web development. 

We are now looking to recruit a film-maker to work with us on the production of an engaging short documentary about the work and heritage of CSIE and its story as part of the wider movement towards more inclusive education.

For more information and to express an interest please write to us at admin@csie.org.uk.

We remain grateful to the National Lottery Heritage Fund and to National Lottery players for making this project possible.
