Inclusive education is a modern educational approach that ensures equal learning opportunities for all students, regardless of their physical, intellectual, social, or linguistic differences. It promotes diversity and equity in education by integrating students with special needs into mainstream classrooms. Special pedagogy plays a crucial role in developing effective educational strategies that address the diverse needs of students with disabilities, ensuring they receive tailored support to maximize their potential.
This thesis explores the scientific foundations of inclusive education, the methods used in special pedagogy, and the outcomes of their implementation. It highlights the importance of inclusivity in education systems, the legal frameworks supporting it, and the challenges faced by educators and policymakers. The research also presents case studies and best practices from different countries, demonstrating the effectiveness of inclusive education in fostering academic, social, and emotional development.
