Overview

The Education (Special Education) degree programme at University of Zambia has since produced just over a hundred and eighty graduates, the majority of whom are employed by the Ministry of Education at various levels.

Key Facts

Over the seven-year period the programme has been on offer, it has maintained its effectiveness in producing graduates with the relevant knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to meet the special educational needs in the education system. Developments world-wide, in the country and in the school, however, have made it imperative to carry out a review of the B. Ed Special education curriculum.

In response to the worldwide trend and Zambia’s Education policy on inclusive schooling as a strategy of meeting educational needs of more children with disabilities, the department has had to cater for the needs of students – teachers preparing to graduate as teachers for such children. The department decided to review the current degree programme so that it responds more meaningfully to the challenges the developments special and inclusive classes bring to the educational system.
