Special Educational Needs

The presence of soft skills (generic competencies) in pre-school education programs is now not elective but a compulsory. Moreover, it is imposing in the context of the dynamic development of the labor market and the search for effective approaches to their early childhood development. Unlike knowledge and specific professional skills, portable skills can never be "out of use." On the contrary, every social situation benefits from them and enriches them. They are the "common language" between employers and educational institutions because they contain the factors that create the good rating of educational services. The formation of these important personal skills should start from an early age and important factors are the family, community, social and especially educational institutions with which the child interacts. In the process of inclusive education of children with special educational needs, there are various concerns for all participants in the process, which put barriers and reduce the chances of success in bringing the child into the kindergarten. Overcoming these concerns can be accomplished by motivating all participants in inclusive education. There are many researches, strategies and techniques for motivating adults (pedagogues, parents, etc.) in this process. But there are not enough studies and models to motivate children with special educational needs. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to find out the possibilities of forming this transferable skills in pre-school children participating in inclusive education as an activity that meets one of the objectives set out in the Pre-school and School Education Act, namely - competences to understand and apply the principles, rules, responsibilities and rights that result from membership in the European Union.

The purpose of this study is to identify how primary school teachers understand the importance of inclusive education and the benefits of the collaboration between the class teachers and the support teachers. In order to identify the social representations of primary school teachers regarding the cooperation with the support teachers, we have used a questionnaire-based inquiry. We have organised the data into a case study at the level of primary school education. The responses to the open questions offered by the investigated teachers allowed a dramaturgical approach to the roles and the responsibilities of the actors in special education. Our results enhance the benefits of integration of students with special educational needs in the conditions of a distributed responsibility between parents, class teachers and support teachers. Therefore, the qualitative analysis of the written responses of primary school teachers reveals the need of continuous training in aspects related to special educational needs. Keywords: Special educational needs, support teachers, primary school education.

Emotional Perception

The article reviews one of actual and debatable problems in modern education – inclusive education of children with special educational needs. Timeliness and relevance of the study at the moment of writing the scientific article has been justified. The purpose of the study is to reveal the separate issues of potential readiness of teachers of institutions of general secondary education of Chernihiv region for the introduction of inclusive education. Analysis was conducted for achievements of scientists, who studied different aspects of teachers’ readiness for professional activity and forming the professional competence within the inclusive education. Potential professional readiness of teachers at general secondary educational institutions was demonstrated via two main indicators: professional readiness and psychological readiness.

With the ratification of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN General Assembly Resolution 6/106, adopted at 61 session of the UN General Assembly, 2006), the Law of Ukraine No. 176-VI dated December 13, 2009 approved a number of legislative acts. Thus, the Convention on the Development of Inclusive Education, approved by the order of the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine dated 10.10.2010 No. 912 states that inclusive education is a complex process of ensuring equal access to quality education for children with special educational needs by organizing their education in general educational institutions based on the application of personally oriented teaching methods, taking into account the individual peculiarities of educational and cognitive activity of such children. The solution of the problem of organizing inclusive education in general educational institutions of Ukraine is aimed at fulfilling the provisions of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, which led to intensification of scientific research. In this direction, textbooks have been published, methodological recommendations have been developed, scientific articles have been published, defended dissertations. At the same time, in new school projects, investors and authors of general education institutions often do not envisage the organization of inclusive education, believing that children with special educational needs will not study in these institutions. First of all, we should note that in Ukraine society is not entirely prepared to solve the problem of organizing inclusive education in secondary schools. For example, not everyone knows that the formation of a class with inclusive education is carried out by the head of a comprehensive educational institution, taking into account educational needs of the population, provided that there is a necessary material and technical and methodological base, appropriate pedagogical staff and premises, in agreement with the relevant education management body. The article examines the issues of creating equal access for children with special educational needs to quality education by forming a comfortable architectural and planning organization of general educational institutions. Recommendations are given regarding the occupancy of classes with inclusive education, the parameters and areas of the main premises of schools are determined.

The results. The author defines that inclusive education is the provision of equal access to education for all students, taking into account the diversity of educational needs and individual capabilities of the individual. Based on the analysis of the scientific literature, it is shown that effective forms of organizing the educational process of children with special needs are: education in a general (inclusive) classroom, if necessary, with individual or group support; training in a correctional class of a general secondary education institution under the guidance of a special teacher, with participation in general school activities; distance learning for students who are physically unable to attend educational institutions; training in a medical and social institution, in particular with partial inclusion in a general secondary education institution.

The article considers the preconditions that contributed to the development of leisure activities for children with special educational needs in out-of-school educational institutions. The preconditions include: the formation in the public consciousness of the view on the importance of leisure as a sphere of self-realization of the individual; availability of a global international educational policy on positive and constructive approaches to the education of children with special educational needs; availability of historical experience in the development of models for providing education to such children in out-of-school education institutions; the presence of a community of democracies formed in the public consciousness regarding the humanistic paradigm of inclusive education; the influence of the national pedagogical heritage and the existence of an extensive network of out-of-school educational institutions at the time of Ukraine's independence. The inclusive model is defined as bringing together all participants in the educational process, including the gifted, the disabled, the socially maladapted, children from vulnerable places, children from poverty and destitution, children from national minorities and children from immigrants. It is proved that the inclusive paradigm is not aimed at adapting the individual to social, social, economic relations, but on the contrary to the restructuring of the entire system of mass education to meet the educational needs of children with special educational needs. This innovative approach promotes the development of leisure activities for children with special educational needs in out-of-school education institutions. The author's definition of the term "inclusive extracurricular education" is considered as an innovative paradigm of educational relations, which focuses on humane treatment of children with special educational needs, excludes any discrimination aimed at social inclusion of children in extracurricular educational space and their social communication.
