The Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan has identified the development of inclusive education as one of the important tasks in the "State Program for the Development of Education in the Republic of Kazakhstan for 2011-2020". On this basis, the Center for Psychological Assistance and Inclusive Support held a scientific and practical seminar on the topic "Inclusive Education in the Conditions of Distance Learning" at the "Syrdariуa" University.

The aim of the seminar is to prepare and implement inclusive approaches as a tool for providing quality education for children with special psychological needs.

At the Center for Psychological Assistance and Inclusive Support, we often meet with trainings, discussions, people in need of psychological assistance, students with special psychological needs.

The seminar was conducted by the dean of the Faculty of Philology and Humanities, candidate of historical sciences, associate professor M.B. Meirbekov, head of the department, Doctor of Economics. Oralova ZM, director of the library Raeva G. and teachers of the Department of Pedagogy and Psychology. In their presentations, participants were able to provide a comprehensive overview of inclusive education in the context of distance learning.
This year, our university intends to participate in city Olympiads on the program of inclusive education.
 

This will allow:
- obtaining the status of an experimental site;
- cooperation with various scientific and public organizations, other psychological partners;
- integration of students with special psychological needs in all areas of the university, thereby increasing the competitiveness of the city;
- Formation of the psychological attitude of children with normal development to students with special psychological needs;
- Ensuring the process of forming the psychological attitude of society towards students with special psychological needs.

When implementing a model of inclusive psychological support, we need to turn to a learning organization that can meet the needs and requirements of students with special psychological needs. It is very important for us that students with special psychological needs find their place in society, adapt and become full citizens of society. Systematizing and sharing the available experience, we came to the conclusion that if this category of students studied in general education groups and additional conditions were created, their success in learning and socialization would increase. This prompted us to create a program of the Center for Psychological Assistance and Inclusive Support and Open Inclusive Groups.

Syrdariуa University pays special attention to a central plan to attract students with special psychological needs to higher education and educate them about the need for higher education. And one of the main goals of our university is to improve the efficiency of the center and educate students.

We want to say that students with special psychological needs can find their place in life, realize their talents and contribute to the rapid development of our country as highly qualified professionals.
