Morocco’s Minister of National Education, Vocational Training, Higher Education and Scientific Research, government spokesperson Saaid Amzazi said that his department is working on an inclusive education strategy for children with disabilities in Rabat. 

During a meeting, Amzazi said that this strategy aims to enable this category, regardless of disability, to pursue studies in normal classes or classes for inclusive education inside Moroccan schools following the adopted programs.

Since the launch of the national inclusive education program on June 26, 2019, the ministry has taken a series of measures aimed at the effective implementation of inclusive education at schools, through the preparation of the frame of reference for inclusive education classes, with the support of the UNICEF, according to the press release.

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

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