The Role of Principals

Overall, to the best of the researcher’s knowledge, this is the second study to look at the elements that determine whether a school is inclusive, focusing on the role of principals in developing and supporting inclusive schools in the UAE. In this way, the study provided a complete evaluation of school principals’ crucial roles from the perspectives of both special education teachers and general education teachers. The survey findings also revealed that SODs receive insufficient attention due to a lack of attention from principals, a lack of resources, and a lack of knowledge among school communities.
