EXPERIENCES OF STUDENTS WITH LEARNING DISABILITY IN AN INCLUSIVE SETUP

Students with learning disability in an inclusive set up have been recognised more frequently now in many institutions. With identification, the issues related to teachers' attitude, pedagogical interventions and resource development etc. are critical for developing these institutes as inclusive set up. This paper explores these issues and perspective of stakeholders. Although, schools were making significant efforts related to education of students with SLD but the scope for improvement was clearly visible with respect to sensitization of the teachers and other staff. The paper suggests that there is a need to educate and sensitize teachers with respect to areas like assessment, pedagogy and communication with learners in an inclusive set up.
