Abstract

This paper describes inclusive education, issues and challenges in the context of Covid19. The current corona virus (COVID19) pandemic has a profound impact not only on people's health, but also on their studies, work and lifestyle. The most important challenge posed by COVID19 is how to adapt to inclusive education centered on sports schools. School suspension has a very practical impact on all students, especially those with special needs. Inclusive education is a strategy for universal education and maintaining social justice regardless of whether students have disabilities. It involves reorganizing the school’s culture, policies, and practices so that they can deal with the diversity of students in the relevant area. It pointed out that children with special needs can be integrated into an overall platform without any isolation. By avoiding the option of segregation and restricting them to special schools, inclusive education experts are advocating the inclusion of children with special needs in mainstream schools. Only in this way can we demand equal opportunities, especially in education. However, in the context of this pandemic, to achieve inclusive education in India, we face various obstacles and challenges. Teachers’ lack of positive attitudes, non-inclusive curriculum, lack of resources, infrastructure problems, parental ignorance, irregular planning, poor policy implementation, and many other issues are creating obstacles to the promotion of the concept of inclusive education in India.
