3. The concept of inclusive education has been
spelt out in the Salamanca statement and the
Framework for Action on Special Needs
Education 1994. In recent time there has
been a shift toward having children with
disabilities attend the same school as non
disable children. The concept of inclusive
education is a controversial subject for
many.
5. Inclusive is a word which literally means to
include. It contains in addition to take in or
consider as a part of a group. Thus inclusive
education means Including not Only children
with diverse background and abilities in a
common school but, also including children with
disabilities to their maximum potential.
6. Cont..
National Centre on Inclusive Education and
Restructuring(NCIER): defined inclusive
education as, “providing to all students,
including those with significant disabilities,
equitable opportunities to receive effective
educational services, with the needed
supplemental aids and support, in age
appropriate classes in their neighbourhood
school, in order to prepare students for
productive lives as full members of society.”
7. There are two types of contribution for
Inclusive education:
8. Contribution of Government
Organization

of policies, plans, programmes, schemes and
Legal enactments related to persons with
disabilities in the country like person with
disability act, The Integrated Education of
Disabled Children, rehabilitation act etc…

10. The National Policy on Education, 1986 (NPE,
1986), and the Programme of Action (1992)
stresses the need for integrating children with
special needs with other groups. The objective to
be achieved as stated in the NPE (1986) is "to
integrate the physically and mentally handicapped
with general community as equal partners to
prepare them for normal growth and to enable
them to face life with courage and Confidence.”

education:

Abhiyan
14. SSA has adopted a zero rejection policy. This
means that no child having special needs should
be deprived of the right to education and taught
in an environment, which is best, suited to his/her
learning needs (MHRD,GoI,2011).
Every child with special needs should be placed in
the neighborhood schools, with needed support
services
Children with special needs need to be facilitated
to acquire certain skills that will enable them to
access elementary education.
15. MHRD inclusive education for disabled
at secondary stage
The Scheme of Inclusive Education for Disabled at
Secondary Stage (IEDSS) has been launched from
the year 2009-10. This Scheme replaces the earlier

RMSA is a major scheme launched in
March, 2009 with the vision of making
secondary education of good quality
available, accessible and affordable to al
young persons in the age group 15-16 years.
17. National curriculum framework
Schools need to become centres that
prepare
children for life and ensure that all
children,
Especially the differently abled,
children from marginalized sections,
children in difficult circumstances get
the maximum benefit of this critical area
of education.
18. Non Government
Organization
A non-governmental organization (NGO) is
a citizen-based association that operates
independently of government, usually to
deliver resources or serve some social or
political purpose.
19. Cont..
India is a vast country so in order to provide
quality education they need support of other
agencies for it. They are important element of
contemporary Indian society. They are
considered third sector, non profit, voluntary
sector etc. They are supported by government
but do not fall under any government policy.
They have got important status among their
clientele that is the deprived section due to their
active contribution in that area. They work in
those areas where the government initiatives are
limited or lacking.
