Inclusive or specialized school?

In Morocco, two models coexist: the inclusive school, welcoming the child in a mainstream class with adapted support, and the specialized institution with reinforced staffing and small groups.

Criteria for choosing a school in Casablanca

• A specialized teacher or disability coordinator on site.
• Accessible premises (ramps, adapted toilets).
• An individualized education plan.
• Collaboration with therapists (speech, psychomotor, occupational).
• Parent involvement in follow-up.

Frequently asked questions

What is the right age to enrol a child with special needs?

As early as possible: many schools welcome children from 3-4, and early stimulation clearly improves learning. For young children, integrated classes or specialized units are often a good entry point.

How to check a school's quality?

Visit with your child, ask about the staff-to-student ratio, individualized plans and therapist involvement. Talk to other parents too: their experience is the best source of information.

Is inclusive school possible with a heavy disability?

Yes, in many cases, with adapted support and sometimes part-time at first. Each situation is assessed with the school team and the child's therapists — there is no single answer.
