REGANHAN, Walkiria Gonçalves  and  BRACCIALLI, Lígia Maria Presumido. Inserção de alunos com deficiência no ensino regular: perfil da cidade de Marília. Rev. bras. educ. espec. [online]. 2008, vol.14, n.03, pp.385-404. ISSN 1413-6538.

The aim of this study was to identify the profile of regular school teachers of Marília-SP, who have students with disabilities registered in their classrooms, as well as to identify the clientele these teachers were working with. Sixty eight teachers participated in the study in the city of Marília - SP, all of whom had students with disabilities in their classrooms. The instrument used to collect data was a questionnaire with 13 questions divided in 2 parts: 1) identification of participants and 2) identification of students with disabilities. The data was submitted to analysis of absolute and relative frequency. Ten categories were identified. We were able to conclude, based on the results of the study, that the inclusion of students with disabilities in regular school occurs due to changes in teacher development that enable professionals to acquire knowledge and understanding of the distinct ways in which their students learn. Such knowledge helps them to be better structure their pedagogical practice so as to answer to student diversity with quality teaching.
