The article highlights the process of the formation of an inclusive form of education
in the Ukrainian educational system. This trend is aimed at the practical
implementation of the right of people with psychophysical restrictions on access
to education. At the same time, emphasis is placed on inclusive education
for early adaptation to society. The domestic sphere of education has not previously
used this form of education, since a network of special general education
schools for children with disabilities was provided by the state. The problem of inclusive education has traditionally been a focus of interest for teachers, since
they form a conceptual framework and methods of implementing this form of
training. This article is one of the first works on the study of the formation of the
domestic inclusive education in the historical aspect. General scientific and special
research methods were used in the work on the material: a specifically search,
chronological, formally legal and statistical. Thus, as a result of an analysis of
the legal framework and factual material, it has been established that the introduction
of an inclusive form of education is associated with ensuring the rights
of persons with disabilities guaranteed by the relevant Convention ratified by the
Parliament of Ukraine. The accumulated legislative base regulates in general the
main theoretical and organizational issues of inclusive education. The dynamics
of increasing the number of inclusive classes in secondary schools is stable.
However, along with the positive trends, the problems remain that will be solved
already in the process of the development of an inclusion. The improvement of
the mechanism for the implementation of the laws, the accessibility of the learning
environment for children with disabilities, the formation of an appropriate
educational and methodological base remains relevant. In general, the inclusive
form of education has a sustainable perspective.

Keywords: inclusion, inclusive education, integration, children with special
needs, inclusive class.
