It is informed by the inclusive education policy (Education White Paper 6 Special Needs Education, 2001) and supports teachers in dealing with the diversity of learners in South African classrooms.

This curriculum framework was developed between October 2017 and March 2019 through a collaborative process that included academics from universities, technical and vocational education and training (TVET) colleges, community education and training colleges (CETCs) and individuals representing adult and community education and training concerns, and the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) officials.
