Abstract: | Inclusive education is a programme that is aimed at making school experience for
children with special needs (children with learning disabilities inclusive) to be as
normal as possible to the one experienced by their normal peers in regular classroom setting. Children with learning disabilities are a set of special needs children who are often referred to as “lazy” children by regular classroom teachers, who have little or no knowledge about such children. They have often been neglected by these teachers because the teachers have little or no idea on the methods to use in teaching them. Parents of these children are also worried
because of their failure in school. Attitudes of teachers toward these children can make them to learn or not depending on whether it is positive or negative. Teachers should therefore, try and develop positive attitudes toward these children in the classroom so that they can also learn like their peers. This paper focused on the attitudes of regular school teachers toward the education of children with learning disabilities in inclusive education. |
