Academic guidance

The Law of Ukraine on Education (закон України ‘Про освіту’) regulates the creation of a special educational environment. A special educational environment consists of specific conditions, forms, methods and tools for teaching and upbringing. It includes specialised staffing, as well as adapted design, equipment, support devices, software, digital applications, technical equipment and learning materials.

Current legislation of Ukraine provides that children with special educational needs (SEN) have a right to additional support within general secondary education institutions (GSEIs). 

The principles of inclusiveness and equal access are the main principles of educational support and guidance in Ukraine. They provide appropriate conditions for every learner to succeed and develop.
