<p>In this study I have tried to give an historical overview as well as a description overthe current situation regarding inclusion and exclusion of students with specialneeds. How do teachers work with these students and on what grounds are studentsincluded or excluded from their original group. The curriculums and otherdocuments that controls these questions all talk about the individual student as themost important party, they are all pointing out inclusion of students with varyingneeds as an important part of the schools assignment. My research shows that thedecision to include or exclude students can be based on a lot of different grounds, notalways with the student’s best in mind. Reasons for excluding students can,according to my informants, for example be uncomfortable teachers not wanting tohave an extra adult in the classroom or special teachers not wanting to work in apossibly noisy class. If this is a big problem is hard to tell and my informants havevarying opinions. But just the fact that this is an issue is a problem.</p>
