During a meeting he chaired jointly with Minister of Solidarity, Social Development, Equality and Family Jamila El Moussali, Amzazi said that this strategy aims to enable this category, regardless of the type of disability, to pursue studies in normal classes or classes for inclusive education, inside Moroccan schools in accordance with the adopted programs.

Since the official launch of the national inclusive education program on June 26, 2019, the ministry has taken a series of measures aimed at the effective and gradual implementation of inclusive education at schools, particularly in the pedagogical field, through the preparation of the frame of reference for inclusive education classes, with the support of the UNICEF, noted the minister, quoted by a press release from the Ministry of National Education, Vocational Training, Higher Education and Scientific Research.

These efforts were gradually reinforced by the transformation of 700 integrated classes into resource rooms for rehabilitation and support, benefiting around 8,000 students, as well as by adapting the content of exams, the correction operation and the exam conditions, he said.

The tests of the 2020 national baccalaureate standardized examination concerned 539 candidates, he said, adding that the success rate of this segment was 68.1%.

For her part, El Moussali highlighted the participation of her department in improving the conditions of support for the schooling of special needs children, within the framework of the services by the Social Cohesion Support Fund, noting that a total of about 13,321 children (including 2,906 students in informal education establishments) from needy families have benefited from financial support provided by the Fund, for a total amount of 167 million dirhams, through 276 partner associations.
