The inclusion of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in typical educational settings has only recently gained momentum in Greece, responding to the recommendations of the international conventions. Reform of special education legislation spotlights the inclusion of children with autism in mainstream schools. The principal goal is to accept the diversity and heterogeneity of all students. This paper presents the educational policy for children with ASD in Greece and comments on teachers' perceptions of inclusion. School closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse impact on children's lives and created a new environment with different demands for educational inclusion.
根据国际公约的建议,希腊将患有自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)的儿童纳入普通教育环境的做法直到最近才开始兴起。特殊教育立法改革突出了将自闭症儿童纳入主流学校的问题。主要目标是接纳所有学生的多样性和异质性。本文介绍了希腊针对自闭症谱系障碍儿童的教育政策,并对教师对融合教育的看法进行了评论。由于新冠疫情导致学校关闭,这对儿童的生活产生了不利影响,并创造了一个对教育融合有不同要求的新环境。
