Abstract

Inclusive education is increasingly popular in the last few years. It is because this system is effective for disability people for not being excluded from their environment. Len Barton (1998) defines inclusive education as the education for all children, who necessitate serious changes, both in terms of society and economic, social conditions and the schools in which they are a part of. However, making this system work is very challenging and complex. The acceptance of disable students in schools is not the only criterion of inclusion. In fact, there are many more requirements to be inclusive education. Lazuardi, Global Islamic School is a good example of inclusive school in Islamic education. The school is highly committed to conduct inclusive education and famously known for its best and effective therapy center. There are also many students from other schools coming to the Lazuardi's therapy center. Utilizing qualitative research and extensive interviews with the school's leaders, teachers, head therapy center, parents, and students, this paper attempts to uncover the formula of inclusive school that Lazuardi implements. It concludes that Lazuardi's experience in implementing inclusive school can be a role model for other Islamic educational institutions.
