TITLE: A SOCIOECONOMIC FACTORS INFLUENCING ACCESS TO EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES IN INDIA

ABSTRACT: Over the years, the central and state governments of India have developed policies and programs to aid the social inclusion of impaired children. Disabled children still face substantial challenges to entering and completing primary school, notwithstanding these measures. The article focuses on observations, analysis, and meets with numerous stakeholders over the past 30 years who have been involved in the field of education for PwD to inquire through the bigger issues in the current educational system in terms of educational quality and drop-out ratio for primary students with PwD. The accessibility of education for children with disabilities is influenced by many factors, including the attitudes of society, government officials, school staff, and infrastructure; the lack of training of key stakeholders; the invisibility of disability in the community; poverty; a lack of acceptance and a lack of interest; and the perceptions and experiences of parents of PwD and their difficulties in helping their disabled children.
