This study was based on the understanding that special education programs are educational programs which aim to teach -students with physical and/or, psychological illnesses. It is required to develop knowledge, attitudes, and professional skills individually or collectively and members of the community in mutual relations with the cultural, social and natural environment. In this case, teachers need to have the appropriate competence to carry out their duties and functions correctly. This research aimed to evaluate the competence of teachers in special education programs and his implication to the graduate competencies. The study was conducted by using a mixed method approach. The results indicated that teachers have tremendous personal competence, social competence, professional competence and pedagogic competence. Thus, it can be interpreted that teachers have adequate competence to support the achievement of educational program objectives for special students. Adequate competency of the three competencies has implications for the competence of students. Mastery of attitude competency in special education programs is essentially required good, as well as in mastery of knowledge competency.

Therefore, the purpose of this article is to provide school leaders with nine tips, along with 11 immediately implementable practical strategies, to improve upon the inclusive special education programs in their schools. Topics include pertinent definitions, laws, and concepts associated with inclusion; models of coteaching; transformational leadership theory and traits; roles and responsibilities of school leaders in inclusive education programs; and practical strategies to implement to improve upon current inclusive education practices. This article is designed to be used with emerging, new, and experienced school leaders.

The growing concern about planning and providing effective physical facilities for special education programs is presented. Particular emphasis is focused on the inadequacy of decisions made by special educators and architects regarding the nature of the physical environment in the absence of empirically obtained evidence. Supporting the need for such research, some of the difficulties encountered—the isolation of variables, management techniques, and design—are discussed.
