Abstract

In recent times, there has been a growing recognition among various nations regarding the need of inclusivity and the active participation of those with disabilities in their endeavors to attain developmental objectives. One strategy that can be employed to foster inclusivity for children with disabilities is the provision of specialized educational opportunities. The delivery of primary and secondary education in Malaysia has a rich historical background inside the nation, including catering to students with diverse disabilities. This study aimed to examine the current condition and trajectory of educational provision for kids with special needs in Malaysia. This research employed three distinct qualitative research methodologies, including focus group talks, individual interviews, and a qualitative assessment of the existing literature. Despite the presence of certain positive advancements, such as the development of lesson plans tailored to primary school students with special needs and the implementation of early identification programs, several challenges remained that required identification and resolution. The aforementioned issues encompassed insufficiency in resources, early intervention initiatives, essential infrastructure, preparedness, and instructional materials. The need of involving several stakeholders in the planning, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of projects is emphasized by all of these factors.
