Special Education Classroom Infrastructure: Teacher's Views

This study was conducted to know the suitability of the physical infrastructure of schools and integration of special education programs across the country. 37.7 percent of respondents are not sure about the classroom space needed. Majority of respondents (53.6%) satisfied with the location (ground floor) of the special education program. However, 41.9 percent of respondents did not agree with the space because it does not match the capacity of students and teachers at a time and insufficient infrastructure, especially for basic amenities. In conclusion, special education still needs much improvement and classroom modifications should be done by a certified standard. (C) 2009 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
