Abstract: Globalisation has resulted in a profound but concerning effect on educational systems worldwide. The complexity associated with globalization has had defining effects and emotive connotations. At one end, the impact of globalization is seen as an essential component of the positive development of economic, political, social and cultural as well as environmental improvements globally. At the other end, it is seen as a source and root of contemporary tribulations, possibly contributing to segregation and alienation. This paper defines the idea of inclusivity within the globalized landscape. It discusses briefly the importance of inclusive education within the 21st century educational systems and also deliberates on its key challenges. One of the greatest obstacle faced by educational institutions globally is maintaining the balance between the neo-liberal agenda (which focuses on the competitiveness of schools in their market contexts) [1] and the educative agenda, that emphasizes the significance of social and moral values, shared social responsibility and action [2] .
