Critical assessment of the disability policy concerning the education of people with disabilities appears to be challenging,
as certain children with disabilities are not expected to participate in inclusive education, but that different
arrangements are being made to meet their education needs, which defeat the idea of inclusion. Although the policies
demonstrate the government of Ghana’s commitment to equity for all children, Ghana’s education system is essentially
dualist in nature with good education policies on one side and poor implementation on the other side. There is low or
lack of knowledge of the disability law and policies among teachers and parents of children with disabilities. While
trends are increasingly shifting towards inclusive practices, the institutionalization of people with learning difficulties
and others with disabilities remains an entrenched practice
