Abstract

The aim of this study is to develop and validate a multi-level methodology for assessing inclusive practices in educational institutions, with a focus on enhancing teacher qualifications. The research methodology incorporated both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Statistical methods, including the t-test, were employed to evaluate the significance of changes before and after the program's implementation. Qualitative analysis was conducted using semi-structured interviews with students and teachers. The research results demonstrated a significant improvement in the level of teacher preparedness in the field of inclusive education. Confidence in the use of inclusive methods increased by 30%, while knowledge of adapted educational materials improved by 28%. The availability of infrastructure and technologies also saw a 30% increase. The practical significance of the study lies in the fact that the developed assessment methodology can be applied in educational institutions to improve the effectiveness of inclusive programs.
