The article is devoted to the issues of improving the administrative and legal regulation of inclusive education in institutions of preschool education and secondary education instituions in Ukraine. Addressing this topic is certainly relevant due to the fact that, firstly, inclusive education is a new institution for Ukrainian society and a real challenge for children, teachers and the legislator. Secondly, in the science of domestic administrative law there is no comprehensive study of Ukrainian sources of law in the field of inclusive education, which would also fully identify the challenges of this field. Thirdly, administrative and legal acts in the field of inclusive education, unfortunately, do not correspond to reality, have gaps in both the field of law and in the field of pedagogy. The authors set themselves the following tasks: to analyze the sources of law governing relations arising in the field of inclusive education in Ukraine; highlight the current challenges of the inclusive education in Ukraine and make suggestions on ways to overcome them. The methodology of this article includes: the method of analysis and synthesis, the systemic and functional approach, the historical method, abstraction, the comparative method, explanations, research interviews, modeling and forecasting methods. So, the authors of the article translated and studied the legislation of the State of Israel as a progressive country in the field of inclusion. To achieve the main goal of the research it was also conducted a survey among the heads of educational institutions in the city of Odessa, where currently inclusive groups or classes are functioning. This has identified challenges such as gaps in the most legally established procedure for opening inclusive groups and classes; providing schools and kindergartens with assistants who should help educators /teachers and children with special educational needs; the question of the number of children with special educational needs in a group or class and the nature of nosologies. Having studied each of the challenges in detail, the authors proposed appropriate changes and additions to the current legislation, which are detailed in the comparative tables. The conclusions of the article can be used both in research work for the further development of Ukrainian administrative law and in national lawmaking by making appropriate changes to Ukrainian legislation and the adoption of relevant legal acts regulating important issues in the field of inclusive education.

The purpose of the article is to study current trends and ways of improving information support for the functioning of an inclusive education system in Ukraine. The automated system of inclusive resource center (AS «IRC») is defined as a set of software and hardware, based on information and telecommunication technologies provide for the creation of a single integrated information space in inclusive education for the processing of the information generated by the operation of the AS «IRC» and their information support. It is determined that through AS «IRC» teachers of general secondary education institutions and preschool institutions have the opportunity to compile individual development programs for children with special educational needs (SEN), using the findings previously developed by the experts of the inclusive resource centre. EMIS features are described in Ukraine, which operates by collecting information on enrolment, attendance, grade repetition, expulsion from school and graduation. A template is provided for the minimum recommended set of questions to identify children with SEN. Such monitoring makes it possible to identify and detail the difficulties faced by children / teachers, in contrast to the exclusive identification of disability (a certain nosology that is medically confirmed). The development of an inclusive education system in Ukraine is moving towards ensuring the availability and quality of educational services for children with SEN, which aims to improve the quality of information support. In the process of improving the functioning of the AS «IRC» indicators of inclusive education, it is necessary to ensure an organic combination of data already contained in the system with the data set (indicators) that will be collected to assess the effectiveness of educational services in the inclusive education segment. It is substantiated that data sets on the development of inclusive education should be clearly and consistently defined, and should include a wide range of information on children with SEN.

The development of inclusive education in Ukraine is gaining momentum. Mechanisms for organizing a comfortable educational environment in educational institutions are being actively developed in recent years. The issue of developing effective strategies, methods, techniques for inclusive education in educational institutions is acuted. New approaches to education and upbringing of children with different types of educational difficulties, activation of their potential, development of their individual capabilities, satisfaction of their needs and interests; technologies of successful integration of children with special educational needs into the educational space of secondary school, etc. are developed.

Therefore, the article actualizes and characterizes the peculiarities of preparing a child with special educational needs to study in general secondary education. Based on the analysis of a number of scientific papers published in the public domain Google Scholar, it has been identified a number of features that should be considered when preparing a child with special needs for school studying. Among them: 1) the development and implementation in the institution of preschool education: the individual educational program of preparation of a child with special needs for schooling, taking into account the individual characteristics of each child; individual development program taking into account the recommendations proposed by the Inclusive Resource Center in the conclusion on the comprehensive assessment of child development; individual curriculum for working with a child with special educational needs, which contains information about the list of services need to be provided to the child, adaptations and/or modifications necessary for the child; 2) development of pedagogical workers’ professional competencies necessary for working with children with special educational needs; 3) ensuring the effectiveness of the process of psychological support of a child with special educational needs in preparation for school.

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.

When students with special educational needs (SEN) started to be educated in inclusive classrooms of the mainstream school, some issues concerning the organisation of the process of (self) education in the subject World Study came to the fore. The present research aims at revealing the views of mainstream primary school teachers on the difficulties of preparation for the classes on World Study and the process of organisation of (self) education, when students with SEN are educated in the same classroom. 62 mainstream primary school teachers took part in the research. The survey was conducted on the basis of a special questionnaire. It was established that half of the research participants expressed the opinion that they experience difficulties in preparing for the World Study classes in inclusive classrooms. The difficulties are in adapting the content of education, in the choice of teaching aids and methods, in preparing tasks for independent study. The difficulties caused by the preparation for World Study in inclusive classrooms, in teachers’ opinion, are related more to the education of different ability students, provision of individual support, combining teaching methods, giving attention to the student and stimulation of motivation. It is more difficult to give attention to every student with the greater number of students with SEN. The process of education is also made more difficult due to the fact that students with SEN are seldom active and very rarely can work independently. Key words: primary school teachers, students with special educational needs (SEN), inclusive education, world study.
