Abstract

This paper assesses the effectiveness of inclusive education policies for students with disabilities in Indonesia. While the country has made significant strides in formalizing inclusive education frameworks, barriers to full participation in mainstream education persist for students with disabilities, including physical, social, and curricular challenges. Through qualitative research involving students, educators, and parents, the study evaluates the real-world implementation of inclusive education policies and identifies gaps in accessibility and support. The findings reveal that while inclusive education policies are in place, the practical application remains hindered by inadequate teacher training, poor physical infrastructure, and a lack of curriculum adaptations. The study proposes policy recommendations to enhance inclusive education, including the need for specialized teacher training, improved accessibility, and more flexible curriculum designs to accommodate students with diverse needs.
