Summary/Abstract: We are currently accepting the inclusion process as a natural element in the field of education of disabled and socially disadvantaged individuals. Its essence lies in solving relationships of intact in the majority position towards the handicapped in the position of minority. It is ongoing and draws attention to the existing barriers that children with disabilities or adults encounter in inclusive direction. We consider speech abilities, communication skills and social competences with the possibility of naturally developing them in an intact environment as a key factor for the success of including pre-school children with hearing impairment among the majority population in mainstream kindergartens.
