Abstract
en The study aimed to examine the challenges faced by
pupils with disabilities in accessing primary education at two
selected inclusive education piloting primary schools in
Livingstone district of Southern Province. The researchers
adopted a descriptive case study approach with a qualitative
perspective. Data were analysed using the thematic approach.
The study found that the views of most school stakeholders were
predominantly positive, reflecting an acceptance of the inclusive
status of the schools. The absence of significant negative
attitudinal barriers, improvements in school accessibility,
progress in teacher training and the production of locally made
Inclusive Education (IE) modules are noticeable areas of
achievement. The study concludes that despite the presence of
various exclusionary factors, the two schools have made some
observable headway towards the improvement of inclusive
learning for children with disabilities. The study puts forward
various recommendations for IE implementation and future
research in Zambia.
