Abstract: | Inclusive education is the latest aphorism for an all-embracing education for the disabled and their non-disabled peers in a regular classroom. The philosophy and gains of inclusive education are lofiy, ideal and laudable, because it would enhance the attainment of the objectives of Education-
For-All goals, as education cannot be for all until it is received by all. A system that excludes some people cannot be for all and should therefore give way to one that is accommodating of all. This paper thus makes
conceptual clarifications of inclusive education and its prospects in Nigeria educational system. It also evaluates Nigeria ’s National Policy on Education on inclusive education and discusses implications _of inclusive education for educational achievement. It concludes that political will adequate fimding and people's commitment to inclusive education are
critical to its full integration into the Nigeria educational system, and efiective management towards the achievement of its objectives. |
