ABSTRACT
Teachers have great influence on learner's development. The role of the teacher
is to manipulate the environment in order to facilitate earning while at the same
time considering learner's diversities. What the teacher does therefore results in
what is learnt. This means that the teacher's attitudes towards his/her learner
greatly affect the learning of pupils with special needs
11 Students with learning disabilities have for a long time been denied adequate
opportunities to practice and develop to their maximum potentials. For a long
time such learners have been subjected to negative labeling, such as stupid,
idiot, thickly slow learners and low achievers, by their teachers. This trend has
persisted lnspite of intervention measures taken to alleviate the problem. The
objective of the study was to evaluate the inclusive education and academic
performance in selected schools in Kirisia division, Sambura District.
A study adopted a descriptive survey method. The study included 30
respondents where 20 pupils and 10 teachers were interviewed. A questionnaire was developed for the respondents.
The study found out that the level of teacher's attitude and development of ,learners is generally fair and students with disabilities perform fairly.
The study recommended that the government should reward the teacher's good work by offering them better remuneration to enable them to develop positive attitude towards the learners with disabilities.
