Abstract

India has signed and ratified “United Nations Convention on Rehabilitation of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD)” in the very year 2008 when United Nations opened it for signing. UNCRPD makes it mandatory for all nations to implement inclusive education at all levels and in all institutions. Hence, it is compulsory for our country, India, to implement inclusive education throughout the country, at all levels and in all institutions. In-fact, Government of India claims at all national and international forums that it has implemented inclusive education at all levels in all institutions since 2009. However, our observations and experiences in the field infer that inclusive education is still not realized to its true potential in our country at any level. To verify/refute our claim of non-implementation of inclusive education at primary level, we conducted small research among teachers of Government primary schools in Bareilly district of Uttar Pradesh. We targeted to assess awareness and opinion of these teachers towards inclusive education by employing descriptive survey method of research. The results obtained and inferences drawn during our research endeavour suggest that a lot of work is required to effectively implement inclusive education in our primary schools.
