Abstract

The present research explores the efforts of Indonesian schools to respond to the realities of inclusive education. Based on a qualitative case study design, data were drawn from interviews, observations, and document analysis in urban, suburban, and rural contexts. The study establishes inclusive education policies, but their operationalization within the schools is a significant issue. Accessibility provisions such as ramps and adjustable classrooms are found to be desirable. In many locations, inadequate teacher preparation often obstructs the effective implementation of assistive technologies. Moreover, most buildings are poorly maintained and experience a rapid quality decline. Teachers tend to acquire inclusive practice through experience and not formal training programs. Although parental involvement is increasing in urban settings, it remains shallow in rural settings. In some areas, schools are forced to get along with the hardships of inclusion on their own, frequently without much assistance from neighboring authorities. Lastly, this study stresses that real inclusion requires effort beyond the simple enactment of policies; it requires ongoing effort in teacher professionalization, well-thought-out infrastructure, more active community participation, and adaptive governance structures. The findings of this study provide valuable lessons on crafting more inclusive and supportive learning environments in Indonesia and elsewher.

Abstract

This study examines the management of inclusive educational infrastructure in early childhood education for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) at the EDUfa Autism Therapy Center. Using a qualitative case study design, the research investigates how physical learning environments are planned, utilized, and adapted to support children’s sensory, social, and learning needs. Data were collected through observations, semi-structured interviews with therapists, parents, and administrators, and document analysis, and were analyzed thematically. The findings reveal that EDUfa integrates educational and therapeutic functions through sensory-responsive classroom design, transition spaces, and life-skills-oriented facilities. Infrastructure management is characterized by adaptability, collaborative decision-making, and continuous evaluation involving multiple stakeholders. However, financial limitations and shortages of specialized personnel remain significant challenges. The study underscores that effective infrastructure management is central to inclusive, child-centered early childhood education and offers practical insights for institutions seeking to develop inclusive learning environments in resource-constrained contexts.
