Summary/Abstract: Taking into consideration its applicability along time, we can claim that the right to education was the subject of many controversies, thing which it is not justified if we take into account the legal nature of the concept, that of a fundamental right. From the perspective of disabled persons, the right to education has a complex and relatively complete legal settlement, but regarding its applicability on the national level, there are required certain clarifications which will definitely lead to the improvement of some aspects at the institutional level. To express it more clearly, we consider that these problems of applicability arise due to some economic, psycho-social and educationalinstitutional difficulties. Although the European regulates this fundamental right, yet it places the matter of the right to education of persons with disabilities in the responsibility of national public authorities, granting them the freedom of action and also to manage such delicate situations. Regarding Romania, this freedom of action involves limited material resources, thing which determines the restriction of the right to education for persons with disabilities in the matter of the applicability of the legal provisions on education nationwide. The aim of this article is to elaborate a complex analysis on the right to education of disabled persons on the current Romanian educational system, as well as the way public authorities implement national education law regulation.
