The specifics of the activities of teachers working with children with special educational needs determines the nature of interpersonal relationships that develop between all subjects of the educational process. Experiencing teachers of the crisis of interpersonal relations contributes to the emergence of mental burnout as a special state of physical, emotional and mental exhaustion of the individual. There is a rather limited number of scientific works devoted to the study of the relationship between the styles of interpersonal relations of teachers working with children with special educational needs, and mental burnout. Teachers of the Regional state educational institution "Kursk boarding school for children with disabilities" took part in the study (50 people). Observation and conversation, as well as standardized methods for diagnosing teachers' burnout and styles of interpersonal relationships, were used to collect data. Methods of mathematical-statistical analysis were used to process the results. Teachers who work with children with special educational needs are adapted to the stressful effects of the traumatic circumstances of professional activity by limiting emotional return in interpersonal communication and selective response, lack of due attention to their wards, facilitation or reduction of job duties (the severity of the "Resistance" phase: Xm. ± σx = 56.80 ± 22.30; “Inadequate emotional selective response”: Xm. ± σx = 15.38 ± 6.94; “Emotional and moral disorientation”: Xm. ± σx = 11.66 ± 6, 32; "Expansion of the sphere of economy of emotions": Xav. ± σx = 15.48 ± 13.62; "Reduction of professional duties": Xav. ± σx = 14.28 ± 8.51). It has been empirically proven that straightforward-aggressive (β = 0.353 at p = 0.015) and dependent-obedient (β = 0.379 at p = 0.005) styles of interpersonal relations can act as factors in the emergence of manifestations of mental burnout of teachers, and the imperious-leading style (β = - 0.320 at p = 0.016) – a resource for overcoming it (F = 4.37; CMD = 0.57; df = 5.44).

The ideas of the article are based on the high social significance of discussing the practices of inclusive interaction in various spheres of life and ensuring the variability of approaches to the integration of children with special educational needs into the general education system. On the basis of the environmental approach in education, presented in the works of domestic and foreign authors, the basic principles are outlined and the general difficulties of the functioning of inclusive practice at the present stage are identified. The strategy of applying the vector approach to the examination and modeling of the environment of inclusive interaction and designing ways to improve it for the organization of psychological and pedagogical support of the educational process in school is justified. On the basis of the generalized results of the survey of teachers who organize the education of children with disabilities in non-specialized classes, the features and the type of relations that are currently developing in the joint education of schoolchildren with different educational needs during their integration into a single educational space are characterized. Using the methodology of psychological and pedagogical expertise of the school environment, the typification of the most characteristic influences exerted at modern schools on a child with a developmental disorder is carried out. The emerging dominant modality of the educational environment, its orientation to the development of relationships between teachers and peers, based on the priority of stimulating the activity of the individual with different degrees of manifestation of its freedom or dependence, is revealed. The article describes potential capabilities of each of the diagnosed types of environment in terms of its resources for ensuring freedom of choice of activities, stimulating activity, developing students' independence, and forming their personal characteristics. The diagnosed priority of creative and career-oriented orientation allowed us to draw conclusions about the currently established approaches to the inclusion of children with deviant development in the environment of normotypic peers.

The article describes the prerequisites for the creation and implementation of an inclusive educational environment in higher education settings in Ukraine. Contradictions have been identified between the legal framework governing higher education for students with special educational needs and the lack of appropriate physical and psychological conditions for the realization of the right to education, and the contradiction between the existence of a tendency to integrate the educational process and the need to individualize the educational process. It is determined that the state of development of inclusive education in Ukraine is characterized by insufficient development of both social and acmeological mechanisms of interaction of key figures of the educational process. The types of inclusive education implemented by higher education institutions are described. The experience of implementation of inclusive educational policy at Lviv Polytechnic National University and the University "Ukraine" is considered. The author's development of the model of acmeological interaction of participants of the inclusive process in the inclusive educational environment is presented, and the criteria and indicators of evaluation of the interaction of the participants of the inclusive process in the inclusive educational environment are explained. It was found that a serious obstacle to the introduction of inclusive higher education in Ukraine is the lack of financial capacity of universities: there is no equipped environment, there are no special programs aimed at such education. Conclusions are made regarding the importance of acmeological interaction of participants in the inclusive process in an inclusive educational environment, which is not only to improve the situation of students with special educational needs but also to create positive aspects of social development in general.

The main goal of presented model is to create conditions for the development of active position of the individual. Individual cases of tutor support for students with autism spectrum disorders and behavioral and mental characteristics that determine various difficulties of their inclusion in the educational process are considered in the article. Due to the mentioned aspects, the problem of tutor support is actualized. Case analysis shows the relevance of a tutor's work within the framework of an activity-based approach to provide conditions for the development of a conscious involvement of students in the educational process as well as the development of an active position. Present situation requires additional research.
