Educação como ferramenta de inclusão de pessoas com necessidades especiais na cidade de Itambé-PE

Abstract

In this research, we sought to study education as a tool for the inclusion of people with special needs in the city of Itambé in Pernambuco. In this perspective, it was possible to verify that central characteristics of the disabilities of children with special needs are already duly documented in the fundamental scientific literature and clinical literature. The objective of this research was to study, in a descriptive-quali-quantitative way, the inclusion of students with special needs in municipal schools in the city of Itambé, in the view of the teachers. For this, field work of a qualitative and quantitative nature was carried out through a questionnaire for teachers that sought, as far as possible, to understand the basic details of the problem investigated in a clear, direct and precise way from the perspective of teachers in their teaching activities. Aware of this, it is already possible to understand that individuals with any type of limitation deserve special attention from education professionals so that they are taught as they should, that is, accurately and with quality, valuing inclusion and citizenship. It is not a simple task to deal with these people, acting to include them in th e school space, respecting, at the same time, their specificities.
