| Abstract |
This dataset supports an investigation as the first study of attitudes and experiences of Bhutanese teachers, principals, and past students with visual impairment towards inclusive education in Bhutan. Survey responses were analysed employing Rasch, and R statistical software. Responses to open-ended questions and interview data were analysed by manual coding and Leximancer text mining software. The results revealed positive attitudes towards inclusive education, with less support for the inclusion of students with severe disabilities. Barriers include a lack of a national policy, legislation of the rights of persons’ with disabilities, inadequate preparation of teachers and principals, inflexible curriculum, resource constraints, and the associated social stigma.
