Understanding inclusion (national and international perspective)‎

الملخص EN

There have been a number of positive developments in inclusive education in many different countries, recognizing that all students, including those with disabilities, have a right to education.

Around the world, educators, professionals, and parents are concerned about including children with disabilities in mainstream schools along with their peers.

As a result of this trend, a number of factors are contributing, including the increasing importance of education in achieving social justice for pupils with special education needs; the right of individuals with disabilities to attend mainstream schools together with their typically developing peers; the benefit of equal opportunities for everyone in achieving self-growth and contributing to society (Al-Quraini, 2011).

There are various interpretations of inclusion, both in policy and practice.

This literature review provides national and international interpretations and perspectives on the issue of inclusion and inclusive education.
