Inclusive Education as a Contemporary Vision of Child and Youth Education (Why Yes, or “Possibly,” Why Not?)

Summary/Abstract: The text presents inclusive education in the aspect of selected legal and definitional provisions, proposed assumptions and assumed effects. Particular attention is focused on arguments “for,” i.e., supporting the realization and practical implementation of the inclusive education concept to the Polish education system, but there are also counterarguments demonstrating that there are barriers to implementing the analyzed activities. Additionally, the text provides information regarding the possible recipients of inclusive education and selected statistical data concerning some groups of entities included in inclusive education. The general conclusion, however, refers to the perception of inclusive education as corresponding to the requirements of contemporary civilization, the current level of social development and international and domestic legal provisions regarding the rights of people regardless of their level of functioning or the barriers resulting from their biopsychical conditions.
