To explore knowledge of and attitudes about children who have special needs, a questionnaire was submitted to 1145 persons (305 lyceum students, 94 teachers of secondary education, 247 medical students, 354 physical education students, and 145 persons having an exceptional child in their families). Questions concerned the knowledge of categories of children with special needs, acceptance of them in regular classrooms, and willingness to work with them. Analysis showed that most people including teachers had limited awareness of exceptional children, their problems, education, and integration. They showed partial acceptance of mainstreaming and desire to work with such children. Careful education for all, especially teachers, seems advisable.
