From the study, it is evident that learners with special needs are neglected in the inclusive setting or in the mainstream. It creates some kind of stigma in both learners and their parents. Major recommendations include creating of awareness through seminars and workshops to, parents, teachers and the community on matters pertaining inclusive education. The government should sensitize and set up campaigns for educating public and disseminating information about special needs in education through mass media, journals and other public publications in order to create enough awareness through out the country. Faculties should also be offered to cater for effective inclusive education.
