Summary/Abstract: According to the Pre-school and School Education Act (2016), ‘“[i]nclusive еducation” is the process of understanding, accepting and supporting the individuality of each child or pupil and the variety of needs of all children and pupils’. In place of various strategies and programmes for integration, inclusion, etc., there is now an Act decreeing the need for equal access to education for every child, attention to the individual characteristics of each child, and overcoming the stigmatization of differences between children in the name of achieving ‘integration’ of them all. It turns out, however, that even in the Act the focus has been shifted to removing the obstacles to learning, while in its actual implementation the integration/inclusion of all children has been completely forgotten.
