Currently, inclusive education is becoming widespread as equal access to education for all children, regardless of starting opportunities. In this regard, an important task of an educational organization is the formation of an inclusive culture that allows building subject-subject relations between all participants in educational relations based on humanism and the acceptance of the value of each child. The professional and personal readiness of the teacher is a component of the inclusive culture of the educational organization and the inclusive culture of the personality of the teacher.

Therefore here the author is interested in offering a reference or solution about the development of inclusive instructional models based on authentic instructional models in early childhood, namely the inclusive education model that tries to provide an overview in combining the principles of access to education for all students or disadvantaged individuals, and not only for those with special needs. Therefore, the nature of the inclusive education model is a shift from theories, assumptions, practices, and special models of disabilities to the specific non-disability inclusive education system.

ABSTRACT This paper outlines a critical analysis of the paradigm shift from a medical to a social model, using the key concepts impacting on learners with disabilities in a schooling system. The social constructionist perspective and the social model provide a conceptual frame for examining disability and inclusive education. Inclusive education is significant for its multidimensional nature and lack of universal definition. The two main issues concerning scholars and interest groups are the lack of access to learning by learners with disability and the confining nature of disability. Despite the acceptance of inclusive education globally, the evidence in the literature suggests many limitations in broadening access to education for all. The paper found that there is an interplay of various aspects relating to inclusive education, namely the historical context and the education system, the capacity for the implementation of inclusive education, a policy framework, infrastructure and resources coordination, and a culture of inclusive education.

The right to education is one of the fundamental human rights which enables personal development, independence, and full participation in all spheres of life. Article 70 of the Polish Constitution grants everyone the right to education and obliges public authorities to ensure universal and equal access to education for all citizens. By ratifying the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, Poland recognized the right of this group of people to education and committed itself to ensuring an inclusive education system enabling integration at all levels of education. Poland has also ensured that these people will have access to universal higher education without discrimination, based on the principle of equality. Since 2008 the Office of Persons with Disabilities has been functioning in the Pontifical University of John Paul II in Krakow, which supports disabled students and PhD students of our University. The development of the Office over the period of more than ten years, applied procedures, and support systems are described in the article.

The article analyzes the concept of inclusive culture and the methodology of its definition and formation, attempts to apply this methodology in different countries (USA, UK, Spain, New Zealand, Australia). In international practice, educational inclusion is created on the basis of educational organization inclusive culture which is considered as the ground of inclusive policy and practice. In the framework of organizational approach, inclusive culture is defined as a set of shared values which favour creating of inclusive community in organization. Changes of shared values accepting diversity of learners and their educational needs have a key significance in this process. These changes should concern not only declared values, but basic assumptions of educational organization members. The understanding of social justice and equity which lays in the ground of inclusive values influences inclusive policy and practice. In the modern discourse of inclusion, this understanding is based mainly on social-constructionist approach, which conditions preferences in interpretation of social justice and equity in access to education and associated with these preferences risks. In conclusion, the need for the balance between tasks of education and inclusion is suggested in order to minimize risks associated with different understandings of equity in the access to education

This paper investigates the University of Zululand Library’s response to the university’s inclusive education agenda with respect to the accessibility of library services to students with disabilities. This was a qualitative study within the interpretive paradigm that used Michael Oliver’s social model of disability as an underpinning theory. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data from students with disabilities and library staff. In addition, physical inspection of the library building was also conducted. Data analysis was done by thematic analysis. The study reveals that the University of Zululand Library services are not inclusive. Students with disabilities struggle to access library services. They faced such challenges as inaccessibility of library services, unavailability of resources in alternative formats and assistive technologies, and the lack of a disability policy. The study also found that the library faced the following challenges in providing services for students with disabilities: limited funding, a lack of staff awareness and training, the lack of a disability policy and a lack of collaboration. Formulating regulations to enforce the implementation of disability policy and legislation, developing institutional disability policies, and providing assistive technologies are critical in ensuring the accessibility of library services to students with disabilities at the University of Zululand. Unless students with disabilities have equal access to information, the university’s inclusive education agenda will remain a distant dream. Access to academic library services is critical to the full participation of students with disabilities in education. Likewise, inclusive university education can only be realised when students with disabilities have equal access to information. This aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals and the United Nations Convention on the Rights for Persons with Disabilities, which promote equal access to services and facilities to persons with disabilities. This paper raises awareness for both library staff and university management about the current status of library facilities and services with respect to accessibility for students with disabilities and how to address inclusiveness in library service provision.
