dc.description.abstractThis study explores how Kazakhstan’s legal and administrative systems shape the implementation of inclusive education. Inclusive education seeks to ensure that all students, including those with disabilities, receive high-quality learning opportunities on the basis of equity and human rights. Using a mixed-methods design, the research combined quantitative data on school accessibility and disability inclusion with qualitative analysis of national and international legislative frameworks. Interviews with education experts further illuminated local implementation challenges and systemic barriers. The findings reveal significant gaps between policy development and practice. While Kazakhstan has endorsed international agreements promoting inclusivity, progress is hindered by centralized governance, limited funding, and persistent cultural stigma, particularly in rural areas. A comparative review of Finland, Germany, and Russia highlights the benefits of decentralization, community involvement, and strong teacher preparation. The study concludes that achieving genuine inclusivity will require clearer and more inclusive legal language, greater local autonomy in education, enhanced teacher training for diverse learners, and the removal of financial and cultural obstacles. These reforms are essential to secure equal rights and fair treatment for all students.
