Communication in the online environment represents a real evolution for the whole society, hence for the educational system but because the whole change took place in a short span of time, the education has faced an unencountered challenge up to now. Component of the informational society, the educational dynamic and open system promotes nowadays ways of achieving the instructional educational process, offering to the teacher a multitude of organisational and functional variants. However, in the case of children with special educational needs, there are many barriers in the way of achieving their right to education in the virtual space. The present study consisted of achieving an inquiry-based questionnaire, applied to the teaching staff who works in inclusive education centres and to those who have students with different deficiencies and special educational needs in their class.

Modern theoretical directions in the field of special (correctional) pedagogy allowed us to study the content and technologies of teachers' readiness for correctional and pedagogical activity in the educational process. The priority in teaching children with special educational needs is the introduction of inclusive education into the school system, which is part of general secondary education and includes its accessibility. The main issue in the complex of studies related to vocational education is the readiness of teaching staff to work with children in inclusive education. Today, the necessary reforms in the field of inclusive education in Kazakhstan have a humanistic orientation. Special attention is paid to the education of these children. Monitoring of education reforms in Kazakhstan has revealed persistent negative trends in the physical and mental health of children of all ages. The priority in teaching children with special educational needs is the introduction of inclusive education into the school system, which is part of general secondary education and includes its accessibility. The main issue in the complex of studies related to vocational education is the readiness of teaching staff to work with children in inclusive education. Purpose: to use the experience of special and integrated education as a technological experience of psychological and pedagogical support of participants in the inclusive educational process. Methods: we used technological maps (created by a teacher for a student), methods of cooperation and methods of joint group learning, methods of mutual learning, method of psychological comfort, methods of teaching social skills, adaptive technologies, accessible digital media, additional communication technologies, technologies for special training and development techniques and methods of "barrier-free environment" ramps, single-storey schools, the introduction of sign language translators, etc. The results, their significance: Our research has shown at the moment that there is also a positive attitude towards access to education for children with special educational needs who have difficulties with motor skills, as well as hearing, speech or vision. The analysis showed that children with musculoskeletal disorders find quick contact with the environment (12,4 %), as well as children with intellectual disabilities - with mental retardation (12,9 %). Hearing and visual impairments are rare among respondents (9,1 %), more children with external impairments (40.5). Thus, 70% of respondents learned about the problem of disability of their children. Only a third of the students at the school had experience and access to communication with a disabled child, who, in our opinion, is not familiar with institutional constraints, especially in the education system.

A child is a member of a vulnerable group in societies. Children's rights are equal for all children and they cannot be denied, because they are a birthright. However, throughout the world, children with disabilities and their families constantly experience a barrier in regard to the enjoyment of their basic human rights and to their inclusion in society. Their abilities are overlooked, their capacities are underestimated and their needs are given low priority. The barriers they face are more frequently a result of the environment in which they live rather than a result of their impairment. The situation began to change only when requirements to include disabled children in the education system were introduced in legislation. Following the example of other countries worldwide, the Republic of North Macedonia introduced inclusion of children with disabilities in the mainstream educational process, because the right to education is a right for all children, including the ones with special educational needs. For this purpose, the Republic of North Macedonia implemented a series of changes in the educational system for successful inclusion of children with special educational needs. Hence, the main aim of our paper is to represent the actual situation in Macedonian schools regarding the problem of educational inclusion of students with disabilities in the regular school system. The research methods are based on document studies and case studies about changes in social and educational policies for students with disabilities and special educational needs who are included in primary and secondary education. At the same time we shall present some guidelines for teachers who work with these children and future directions for a proper inclusion system in the Republic of North Macedonia, because every child has a fundamental right to education and must be given the opportunity to achieve and reach an acceptable level of learning. In this frame, school societies try to support full participation of students with disabilities in areas of their lives on equal terms, conditions, social justice and basic human rights.

A modern university answering the challenges of the society does not remain aloof to introduce certain inclusive practices. Currently, the legislation of the Russian Federation clearly distinguishes between the concepts of “Disability”, “Special health opportunities “and” Special educational needs”. However, there is a demand to combine all three terms into one, that is “Special educational needs”. The author considers this substitution to be unlawful. The article attempts to analyze each term from the point of view of prospects for each group of students to get higher education, taking into account the peculiarities of their psychophysical development. In addition, the author reviews some difficulties (insufficient technical equipment of the classrooms, learned helplessness of students, lack of knowledge about various nosological groups of disabled people, etc.) and ways to overcome these and other problems such as development of an adapted educational program, compliance with the principles of health conservation, psychological readiness of the teaching staff to work with such students. The author draws the conclusion that only training of teachers and the creation of a special educational space, the inadmissibility of a formal approach to the integration of students with special educational needs can contribute to the successful provision of their right to education.

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.
