In connection with political and educational reforms in Ukraine over the last five years, the legal basis for a new non- educational model of education for students with special educational needs was laid down. In particular, the pro-European vector of development of society was chosen, the new Law on Education of Ukraine was adopted, the key principles and terms were clarified, which expanded the concept of “inclusion” into the non-educational, social environment.In the state, the European approach to the organization of a total barrier-free environment an inclusive landscape is gradually being formed, in the forefront of which is the Open International University of Human Development “Ukraine”.The peculiarity of the introduction of inclusive education in Ukraine is two opposite trends: on the one hand, the state lags behind the European countries through the long period of the Soviet and post-Soviet segregation period; on the other hand, Ukraine does not need to develop its own experience, since it is possible to adapt to the European and world achievements its own traditions.The beneficial factor is that the implementation of the inclusive practice coincided in time with the implementation of the Bologna system of education associated with the abolition of the lecture and seminar linear system, the introduction of personal student ratings, distance and individual training, etc.The Open International University of Human Development “Ukraine” is one of the few higher education institutions in Ukraine, applies the relatively autonomous system of inclusive administration for the dominant European Union “bottom- up” principle, which is realized through the informational and communicative open but administratively independent synergy of the three-contour system of self-government and maximum informatization and openness of the educational process within the already formed physical environment.The University has completely formed an architectural, technical and educational and methodological base on which the educational process involves personal orientation, the emphasis on post-graduate students' activity, their self- organization and the provision of a full package of services in the field of training, psychological counseling, assisting, initial, current and final monitoring a) knowledge, skills and abilities; b) psychological dynamic component with constant correction of current changes.

Today, one of the priorities of the Ukrainian state policy in the field of education is the creation of a universal barrier-free environment, barrier- free education, which makes it impossible to ensure the full inclusion of children with special educational needs in the educational process. The current situation in the modern education system is characterized by processes of modernization in all its structural components in particular it concerns educational standards, educational programs, principles of interaction of participants of the educational process, principles of organization of the educational environment, etc. The basis of inclusive education is to take into account the individual characteristics of children, the diversity of their educational needs, opportunities, and interests. Therefore, there is a need to change working methods, forms and technologies.

The article describes the state of psychological readiness of primary school teachers for the introduction of inclusion into the national education system. The 92,8% of pedagogical workers have been found to support the latest changes regarding inclusive education. The above points testify to the humanistic orientation of teachers to the organization of educational process involving the children with special needs. They perceive and appreciate not only the positive qualities of the students, but the person as a whole, that is, respect their dignity, recognize the right to free access to education. At the same time, the desire to work with this category of children was revealed by only 6,98% of the respondents. Reasons that prevent teachers from perceiving educational reforms, lack of information about working with special children (87,21%), lack of understanding how and how to make individual programs for children with special educational needs and implement an algorithm for its implementation (94,77%). There is also a fear of preserving the life and health of such students (97,09%), as experience proves that children with emotional and intellectual disorders do not always control their actions and threaten not only their personal health and life, but also other children. Proposals have been developed to increase the teachers' readiness to work with children with special educational needs. It is important to clearly identify the category of children with special educational needs that are able to integrate into society and minimize the individual curriculum. The future teachers need to know articles of the Law "On Education", which define the requirements for inclusive classes. It is necessary to hold trainings, master classes, consultations, round tables, webinars on problems of inclusive education for teachers. It's important to involve in the development of individual programs for children with special educational needs of defectologists, speech therapists, special correctional teacher.

The article considers the results of the all-Ukrainian monitoring study on the implementation of NUS in the context of inclusive education for children with special educational needs in general secondary education on the example of primary school, which for the second year implements the New Ukrainian School Concept. We consider the organization of inclusive education in general secondary education institutions through the prism of educational indicators developed by the researchers. The developed indicators record the state of the organization of inclusive education in general secondary education institutions. We chose the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, adopted by the United Nations in 2006, as the basis for the development of indicators. The educational indicators presented in the article cover two areas of organization of the educational process in accordance with the needs of children with special educational needs: indicators of the organization of the educational process and indicators of the organization of educational activities. For the first direction, for example, the following indicators are proposed: the number of teacher assistants per child with special educational needs, for the second direction – the teacher’s willingness to work in the classroom with children with special educational needs. We form the first group of indicators from statistical data obtained from the State Statistics Service of Ukraine, the second group – from statistical and analytical data collected during monitoring studies. The results of the monitoring study are considered in the context of the educational indicators we have presented, which will allow education authorities to obtain objective information on a given issue and to make informed management decisions to improve the organization of inclusive education for children with special educational needs. Thus, it was found that the provisions of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities have not yet been fully implemented in the educational process of general secondary education institutions. Both the provision of «smart accommodation» and quality education for children with special educational needs – these issues remain relevant and open today. And this in turn requires the organization of additional research on the organization of inclusive education in general secondary education institutions.

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.
