| dc.description.abstract | Through observation and conservations the researcher established that the intellectually challenged learners were not accorded their due human respect and rights by the teachers. Teachers regarded them as abnormal, violent and slow in learning and therefore unworthy to be accommodated in their midst. This prompted the researcher to conduct a study to find out why it was happening. He prepared questionnaires for both teachers and pupils. The respondents were able to answer the questions and return the questionnaires. Investigations revealed that the negative attitude comes about majorly as a result of lack of awareness. Lack of facilities had also compounded the plight of intellectually challenged learners in the regular schools. It was in the researcher feeling that the government should do something to change the trend. The government should strongly come out to spell out clear policies and give appropriate and adequate support in staffing and relevant facilities and services required by these learners for them to excel socially and academically. | en_US |
