Resource Assessment and Inclusion Risks: Students' View

Abstract

The study aims to analyze the resources and risks of inclusion in a comprehensive school from the point of view of students. The authors proceed from the position that one of the criteria of inclusivity can be the subjective well-being of students, as a direct integrative assessment of satisfaction and positive emotions. Therefore, it is important to analyze the student's position (voice) in assessing inclusive educational processes in schools. In 2021, a continuous survey of students from one school in the city of Tyumen was conducted. The sample consisted of 807 students. The study was conducted using the author's questionnaire. The questionnaire of the international research project on the study of the subjective well—being of children "Detsky Mir" - Children'S WORLD and inclusion indicators (Booth, T. Einscow, M.) is taken as a basis. The statistical software package SPSS-23.0 was used for statistical analysis. The analysis made it possible to identify the risks of inclusion that must be taken into account when organizing and implementing the educational process, insufficient level of satisfaction with school as a component of subjective well-being; a tendency to decrease school satisfaction during the transition from 7th to 11th grades; significantly lower grades of all components of subjective well-being by students with OOP; significantly lower grades of all components of inclusion in students with OOP. The survey revealed the inclusion resources in the school under study: satisfaction with friends, family, yourself and your life prospects; high appreciation of inclusive culture at school.
