Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4) advocates for inclusive and equitable quality education that fosters lifelong learning opportunities. It ensures equality in education where typically developing children and Children with Disabilities (CWDs) are taught in one classroom. Thus, educational policies should align with SDG 4 regarding‟ inclusive education”, including for and with CWDs and children across the spectrum of learning ability. All lesson plans, teaching and assessment should be for all learners. However, the primary and secondary school environments are not conducive to inclusive education and may challenge teachers. How teachers enhance inclusive education is based on their beliefs and views of inclusive education. In South Africa, including CWD in regular school classrooms is a priority. Understanding teachers’ views regarding inclusive education practices is vital for all learners in South Africa.
This research topic aims to explore the complexities of Inclusive education in South Africa, describe the implementation of inclusive education, and provide insights to advance inclusive teaching and assessment. It is vital to identify the teachers’ views concerning inclusive education and how teachers enact them in schools.
