Abstract

The global target of education for all and much more inclusive education are precious in improving the living standard as well as life style of all citizens. Inclusive education curbs the vicious circle of illiteracy and poverty that is already high in most developing countries; hence India and Namibia need to make feasible plan and strategies that should constantly be monitored to see if they are successfully implemented. It is good for schools to educate every one and not simply including everyone. This paper analyzes Indian and Namibian policies, legislatures as well as previous related articles to draw conclusions. It was found that despite the policies, acts and legislature; the implementation of the policies is poor and there is more of including than addressing the needs of students in learning amongst schools that are practicing inclusive education. There is a need to collect accurate and fresh research data so that policies and legislature makers make informed plans that are suitable for their society.
