المستخلص

      This study explores the attitude and views of mothers in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, towards inclusive education. An analysis of this theme is based upon qualitative data collected from ten semi-structured interviews: eight with mothers of children with and without SEN, and two with governmental and private sector officials. The findings suggest that many mothers are unaware of the concept of inclusive education and its practical implications for their children. While they were familiar with integration, they were found to lack motivation in ensuring integration with their children, fearing stigma or unsuitability due to mental and severe physical disability.
This study shows the need of raising mothers' awareness in inclusive education, which is mainly the government's responsibility along with private sectors.
