Training a special teacher: Opinions and experience of teachers in the conditions of inclusive education

Summary/Abstract: In the context of the active spread of inclusive education in Kazakhstan, it seems important to modernize their training for work in inclusive schools. Accordingly, the problems of effective preparation of teachers to work with inclusive classes have acquired particular relevance. The aim of the proposed study was a comparative study of the opinions of teachers-defectologists in secondary schools of the region on the organization and implementation of practice in inclusive education. Thus, an interview was conducted with teachers in North Kazakhstan. The development of inclusively oriented professional and personal competencies among teachers largely depends on the success of the inclusion of children with special educational needs in the general educational process. Based on the study of the opinion of special teachers practicing in inclusive organizations, it is argued that inclusive education of children with special educational needs requires a change in approaches to the training of special teachers, modernization of the content, and directions of their training.
