The relevance of this topic lies in the fact that the development of inclusive education is inextricably linked with the training of teaching staff, prepared to work with "special" children. The aim of the study is to develop professionally important qualities in future teachers. To achieve the goal, the level of knowledge of the problem of the development of students' readiness to work in inclusive education and the level of development of the components of the readiness of future teachers to work with children with special educational needs were revealed, the effectiveness of an experimental model of the process of preparing future teachers to work in inclusive education was tested. A psychological and pedagogical experiment was conducted with ascertaining, formative and control stages. Diagnostics of the level of formation of the components of psychological readiness using the methodology "Diagnostics of the readiness of teachers to work with children with disabilities" at the ascertaining stage showed that students did not have any ideas about the patterns of development characteristic of children with OVZ on the specifics of organizing pedagogical support for special children in the system of inclusive education. In order to increase the level of development of inclusive readiness of students, a formative experiment was carried out, for which a special course of practice-oriented classes (12 lectures and practical sessions) was developed, aimed at a deep study of the patterns of development of children in conditions of inclusion and the organization of pedagogical support for special children. Repeated diagnostics showed a positive dynamic of students’ readiness for a number of indicators: the formation of ideas about the conditions that must be observed when teaching and raising children with disabilities, forms of organizing inclusive education and upbringing of children in inclusive education. The results obtained allow us to conclude that the experimental model of the process of preparing future teachers for work in inclusive education is effective and it is recommended to introduce it into practice.

Implementation and educational inclusion in school is a relevant topic for pedagogical and social context because it implies the acceptance and appreciation of differences among children as incentives, rather than obstacles in the process of teaching and learning. On the UNESCO World Conference concerning Special Educational Needs held in 1994, Statement and Framework for Action were adopted, which promote the right of every child to be involved in the educational system, and in regular schools, regardless of their physical, intellectual, emotional, social, linguistic or other conditions. The term special educational need in this context does not exclusively refer to children with disabilities. The concept of inclusive education with the meaning of inclusion of all children in compulsory education extends and deepens the educational model of integration of children with disabilities in regular education. The introduction and implementation of inclusion in schools becomes the requirement of contemporary educational policies of Europe and the world, whereby the changing of schools in order to achieve educational inclusion is conditional on changing the entire educational practice (Mittler, 2006). This paper will show some of the assumptions that are crucial for the implementation of inclusion in schools with special emphasis on the role of activities of teachers as key participants in the process of inclusive school.

Abstract. The article analyzes the teachers᾿ readiness to work in field of inclusive education. It is emphasized that in the context of educational reforms, the question of the feasibility of introducing inclusive education has become acute. This involves educating children with disabilities in comprehensive schools and kindergartens ‒ together with peers who are developing normally. According to the content of the modern national education model, it is assumed that the number of people with disabilities who get educational services in public institutions will increase. At the same time, in accordance with the national action strategy in the interests of children, it is planned to reduce the number of children with disabilities who remained outside the education system, for some objective reasons. Accordingly, it requires new demands on teachers, requires the expansion of their functional responsibilities, changes in professionally significant and personal characteristics. Modern society makes new demands on teachers ‒ the willingness and ability to teach all children without exceptions, regardless of their inclinations, abilities and disabilities. At the same time, the widespread use of a new category of children in kindergartens and secondary schools has led to changes in the teachers᾿ working conditions. The range of teachers᾿ pedagogical interests has significantly expanded. There is a social demand for updating the content of professional training, which includes issues of inclusive education. As a result of the conducted empirical research showed mostly the average, and also low readiness level for work in the inclusive education conditions. The respondents revealed interest in the education problems and raising children with disabilities together with their healthy peers, but just a small number of teachers are willing to work in these conditions. The reason is the lack of knowledges about the peculiarities of the children development, their special educational needs and the pace of progress in the educational process.

The article analyzes the historical stages of inclusive education in the United States: the first – 1960 – the stage of segregation and marginalization of people with special educational needs, the second (from 1968 to 1975) – the stage of normalization, the idea of involving disabled students in the educational environment, the third stage – educational mainstreaming (1975–1983), the fourth stage – (1983–2004) – inclusive education characterized by joint training of people with special needs with peers using typical development, the fifth –mixed educational system – a comprehensive inclusive education system starting in 2004 and until now in the United States.It was determined that the definition of “special educational needs” (learning disability), means developmental delay, disorder of one or more processes related to speaking, reading, pronunciation, writing or arithmetic abilities as a result of possible cerebral dysfunction, but not in the result of mental disorders, loss of sensitivity, cultural, educational or upbringing factors. It has been found that disorder or disability is not one specific concept, but often a mixture of disorders grouped under one broad term, and inclusive education is seen as “the process of addressing and responding to the diverse needs of students by ensuring their participation in learning, cultural activities and community life and reducing exclusion in education and the learning process”. Now intellectual level is determined by using standard intelligence tests, mostly Stanford-Binet, that allows to use individualized curricula as a basis for teaching children with disabilities in inclusive settings. But it is still clear that even in such circumstances, the problems of inclusive education remain to be complex and ambiguous. Keywords: special educational needs, children with disabilities, inclusive environment, inclusion, child with special educational needs, inclusive education, state acts, US general education system.

In pedagogical circles always having the discussion concerning the effectiveness, feasibility of one or another form of training. A difficult issue is the differentiation of the psycho-medico-pedagogical commissions on the selection of programs and learning, educational institution. Thus, the actual research of the education of children with special educational needs on the example of educational institutions of Rivne.Research objective: to study the formation of the system of education for children with special educational needs. Research objectives: 1. To conduct a systems analysis of the scientific literature on the topic of research. 2. Examine the network of inclusive schools in Rivne. 3.

Aim. In order to provide psychological counselling, it is necessary to properly diagnose and study the psycho-emotional states, psychological makers of parents raising children with special educational needs (SEN). Methods. In the diagnostic and practical work with parents of children with SEN, we used the text analysis method and the biographical method (including projective techniques lifeline, my autobiography), which combine diagnostic and psychotherapeutic scientific results. Family sociogram technique (Eidemiller, 2002) and its modified version (Tkachova, 2014) are used to study interpersonal family relationships and the nature of communication. The article analyses the scientific data and approaches to the study of problems faced by parents, arising from the condition of their child; emotional states of parents raising a child with SEN; stage of experience of the birth of their child. Results. Intervention is focused on the present and future. If the experience of the past comes up, it is used for the benefit of achieving certain goals. An important result of the study to be worked on is that parents of special children mention only their family and children, but forget about their own wellbeing. Children with SEN are surrounded by care and love, parents seek symbiotic relationships with children trying to satisfy all their needs, protect from difficulties, offer boundless love and sometimes over-protection. Conclusion. Knowledge of psychological stages identified within the theory of grief helps professionals understand when and how it is better to intervene in the situation taking into account the characteristics of a particular family and individual reactions.

The article is devoted to the discussion of the results of a survey of parents of children with disabilities conducted by the “All-Russian Organization of Parents of Disabled Children and Disabled People over 18 Years of Age with Mental and Other Disabilities Who Need Representation of Their Interests” (VORDI). The authors discuss the problems that parents say — home education, lack of psychological and pedagogical assistance and special conditions at school, disagreement with the opinion of the psychological, medical and pedagogical commission. The key problem of the education system, in the opinion of the respondents and the authors of the article, is the absence or lack of training of teaching staff who could work in an inclusive education with students with special educational needs. The position is expressed about the need for systematic development of inclusive education resources, and above all human resources. The creation of regional resource centers for the development of inclusive education in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, providing for retraining and advanced training of teachers, their methodological support, is seen as a priority direction of the state policy in the field of education.
