Abstract
Inclusive education is practised globally as well as in South Africa and is researched widely.
South Africa’s policy document, Education White Paper 6: Special Needs Education:
Building an Inclusive Education and Training system was implemented in 2001. This policy
is grounded in human rights and strives to promote the rights of children who have
disabilities by including them in mainstream schools. The attitudes that teachers have toward
the inclusion of learners with disabilities influence the success of the implementation of this
policy as teachers are at the forefront of implementing it
