CHALLENGES OF IMPROVING SPECIAL EDUCATION IN UKRAINE

Journal Title: Наука і освіта - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 2

Abstract

The paper deals with the analysis of the legislative framework of the system of special education in Ukraine. There is a need for the optimisation of the system of special educational institutions, which is carried out by means of imple- menting inclusive education, reducing the number of boarding schools and creating a new type of special institutions (training and rehabilitation centres) for children with special needs. The thing is that according to the regulations on the training and rehabilitation centre, it should be attended by children with complex psychophysiological disorders, but now there are many students studying at such centres who do not fall into this category (for example, children with cerebral palsy who have speech disorders as a secondary defect). At the same time, it will be too difficult for such child- ren to attend inclusive classes. Moreover, the issue about the proper effect of this rehabilitation aid is disputed. Thus, there is a need for specifying a term «children with complex psychophysiological developmental disorders‖ (i.e. sub- suming the children who have the man disorder and coexistent psychophysicological disorders into this category). Another way of solving this problem is the increase of the number of students of training and rehabilitation centres, which will make it possible to engage students attending inclusive classes, who will be able to go to rehabilitation cen- tres and obtain efficient medical and rehabilitation service after classes.
