“…Parents involved in assisting their children to complete their homework can upgrade students' achievement levels (Aida & Zolkepli, 2014;Manisah, Azleen, Norshidah & Majid, 2017). The continuity of learning in school and at home, not only helps in academic attainment but also helps remedy problematic behavior among students (Norshidah & Khalim, 2018). Research findings also illustrate that time constraint is the main obstacle faced by parents in involving themselves in discipline management of their special children.…”

This working paper discusses research findings related to parental involvement in the management of discipline among special education children in schools. Its two specific objectives are identifying in this research; the forms of involvement and the obstacles faced by parents. Quantitative research was conducted in survey manner on parents of special needs children in 11 primary schools from a state in Peninsular Malaysia, namely Negeri Sembilan. The research instrument used was questionnaire that was adapted from the questionnaire Family Involvement Study High School. The study sample consisted of 110 parents selected through Purposive Sampling, whereby all parents were identified as having learning difficulty children in primary schools in Negeri Sembilan. Data was analyzed descriptively using SPSS to obtain Mean Values and Standard Deviation. Research findings indicate that the overall involvement of parents in discipline management of special education students was at a moderate level (mean = 3.66). Out of the six forms of parental involvement, the role of parents (mean = 3.90) and study support at home (mean = 4.06) occupied top spots. Meanwhile obstruction to parental involvement in discipline management in schools was also at moderate level (mean = 3.20), where in five of the obstacles were at moderate levels. Socioeconomic standard, however was not a primary obstacle, and was at a low level (mean = 2.58). Thus, problems encountered by these parents need to be handled so that parental involvement with regards to their children's discipline management can be elevated to a higher level. The implication of this study speaks of the need by school authorities to reduce resistance faced by parents so that they can involve themselves in all activities and programs that are carried out by school. Through the cooperation forged between teachers and parents, misconduct and discipline problems of students can be handled collectively by both school and parents.

“…Other studies have proposed various guidelines to enhance the educational environment in an inclusive setting. Studies have implied that disability contributes to the poor personal development of social skills; thus, there is a need for intervention to augment the acquisition of the required skills for social interaction and enable effective socialization with their sighted peers [8][9][10]. Recent studies have shown that it is necessary for students with visual impairment within inclusive settings to receive special education services so that they can participate in class activities [11,12].…”

Students with visual impairment in Sudan are usually accepted into residential segregated schools during their pre-high school years. This schooling system remains a subject of excessive debate among those interested in this field of study. This debate is part of an ongoing conversation and discussion on the merits and demerits of integrating disabled children with non-disabled peers at regular schools. This study aimed to answer three main questions pertaining to this subject. The first one tackles whether the placement of visually impaired students in specialized schools for the blind in Sudan (henceforth specialized schools) serves their education best. The second compares the advantages and disadvantages of integrating this group of students into regular schools as opposed to separating them into specialized schools. The third question is concerned with the competencies which the teachers at the Sudanese General Basic School should have in order to fulfill the requirements of the inclusive education setting. Interviews were conducted with a group of 20 participants; 10 of these were students who joined schools for the blind and regular schools in Sudan, while the remaining participants were teachers and personnel in the field of education for the visually impaired in Sudan. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the interview data, which revealed that students with visual impairment, teachers who work in specialized schools, and the group of special education officials who participated in this study were in favor of inclusive education at regular schools after securing the necessary educational needs for these students to access school curricula equal to their sighted peers. Many practical solutions and suggestions have been presented to enhance the education of the visually impaired in Sudan.
