There is currently a trend towards an increase in the number of children with special educational needs enrolled in inclusive schools. Thus, the number of children with special educational needs enrolled in inclusive schools is growing. This is caused both by significant changes in the legal regulatory framework, including the 2012 Federal Law on Education, the adoption of the Federal State Educational Standard of Primary General Education for Children with Special Needs, etc. and by the fact that in some regions the number of specialized schools is decreasing, inclusive education becomes a more affordable option for children with special education needs. School specialists, parents, and the public engage in an active dialogue about choosing the most efficient path for an educational route for special needs children, comparing the advantages and disadvantages of inclusive and special education. The design and implementation of an individual educational route, an individual curriculum is essential for children with special needs in terms of improving the quality of education and efficiently entering social life. The relevance of the study is determined by identifying the components that facilitate and complicate, hinder the development and implementation of an individual educational route for these children in an educational organization; the determination of the content of an individual educational route based on the current situation in a practical institution considering the requirements of inclusive education. The purpose of the study is to explore the problems of developing and implementing individual educational routes for children with special needs in the context of inclusion and to determine ways to solve these problems. The key methods of the study are a questionnaire and a structured interview. The empirical data confirms the assumption that the development and implementation of an individual educational route for children with special needs in an educational organization are problematic and inefficient for several reasons. The data obtained is new since similar research results have not been found in the open sources over the past five years.

The article is devoted to the issues of improving the administrative and legal regulation of inclusive education in institutions of preschool education and secondary education instituions in Ukraine. Addressing this topic is certainly relevant due to the fact that, firstly, inclusive education is a new institution for Ukrainian society and a real challenge for children, teachers and the legislator. Secondly, in the science of domestic administrative law there is no comprehensive study of Ukrainian sources of law in the field of inclusive education, which would also fully identify the challenges of this field. Thirdly, administrative and legal acts in the field of inclusive education, unfortunately, do not correspond to reality, have gaps in both the field of law and in the field of pedagogy. The authors set themselves the following tasks: to analyze the sources of law governing relations arising in the field of inclusive education in Ukraine; highlight the current challenges of the inclusive education in Ukraine and make suggestions on ways to overcome them. The methodology of this article includes: the method of analysis and synthesis, the systemic and functional approach, the historical method, abstraction, the comparative method, explanations, research interviews, modeling and forecasting methods. So, the authors of the article translated and studied the legislation of the State of Israel as a progressive country in the field of inclusion. To achieve the main goal of the research it was also conducted a survey among the heads of educational institutions in the city of Odessa, where currently inclusive groups or classes are functioning. This has identified challenges such as gaps in the most legally established procedure for opening inclusive groups and classes; providing schools and kindergartens with assistants who should help educators /teachers and children with special educational needs; the question of the number of children with special educational needs in a group or class and the nature of nosologies. Having studied each of the challenges in detail, the authors proposed appropriate changes and additions to the current legislation, which are detailed in the comparative tables. The conclusions of the article can be used both in research work for the further development of Ukrainian administrative law and in national lawmaking by making appropriate changes to Ukrainian legislation and the adoption of relevant legal acts regulating important issues in the field of inclusive education.

In accordance with the professional standard “Teacher-psychologist (psychologist in the sphere of educational)”, one of the priority working areas for specialists is the provision of psychological and pedagogical assistance to persons with special educational needs (limited health disabilities / generalized labor function B). Each teacher-psychologist faces the task of effectively organizing a system of correctional and developmental classes with pupils and students with special needs. To solve it, a team of psychologists from four educational organizations in Moscow (Secondary School named after Artyom Borovik, Secondary School No. 1357 “On Bratislavskaya”, Secondary School No. 1547, Maryinsky Secondary School No. 1566 in memory of the Heroes of the Battle of Stalingrad) and the specialists of the City Psychological and Pedagogical Center of the Department of Education and Science of Moscow have developed the so-called “Work Programs Constructor” technology (hereinafter referred to as the Constructor). This article discusses structural features of the Constructor, which allow the specialist to take into account the full range of correctional and developmental assistance for children with disabilities when developing the program, taking into account their special educational needs and age. The issue of ensuring the continuity of work programs at different age stages in the implementation of each direction of correctional and developmental work is touched upon. When analyzing the substantive aspects of the Constructor, special attention is paid to the consideration of the age development norms as guidelines for the organization of correctional development work and indicators of its effectiveness. The article reveals how this technology provides a unified approach to helping children with special educational needs.

Introduction. The number of children with speech disorders increases from year to year. Work on the development of speech at preschool and school educational organizations is not always planned, systematic, and coherent. This composite group of children is insufficiently studied in pedagogical science and practice. In classes on speech development and children’s independent activity, not enough time is devoted to collective activities. Materials and methods. The pilot study involved 147 children from four preparatory groups and two first grades of the elementary school in Orekhovo-Zuevo (Moscow Region, Russian Federation). The following research methods were used: analysis of foreign and domestic scientific literature, survey, and experimental research. The results were compared using Pearson's chi-squared test χ2. The study used the authors' toolkit adjusted for the conditions of the experiment. Results. The study showed a fairly high quality of the toolkit prepared for testing. Initially, the groups of respondents showed a low level of speech development – 47% (69 children), an average level – 51% (75 children), and a high level – 2% (3 children). Collective activities were widely used at the formative stage during class time and after classes. The results of the control stage (low level 8.1%, average 47.3%, high 44.6% of children) convincingly demonstrate the effectiveness of using collective activities in speech development (χ2 = 96.813; p < 0.01). Discussion and conclusion. The toolkit chosen for collecting primary information was shown to be of sufficient quality. The study showed the effectiveness of using active social and psychological education methods (in particular, Olympiads, creative workshops, creative weeks, collective creative activities) by teachers of pre-school educational organizations and primary school teachers to develop children's speech. An important condition for the development of speech in children of older preschool and primary school age is using collective activities, insufficiently studied in Russia and abroad, in the pedagogical process.
