Towards Inclusive Education: A Critical Analysis of Inclusive Education Practices in Pakistan
Abstract
Many countries have adopted inclusive education policies addressing diversity, but implementation challenges remain, especially in Pakistan. Here, inclusive education reflects the country’s willingness to allow every student to study at quality institutions while recognizing cultural and intellectual differences. Major obstacles include public attitudes, infrastructure shortages, and unprepared teachers. This paper reviews sociocultural factors within policy frameworks and suggests strategies like awareness programs, professional training, and policy reform. Prioritizing inclusivity, equity, and social justice can help Pakistan create a fair system that fosters a tolerant community, allowing every individual to reach their full potential.
