Inclusive education is becoming more and more common in Poland. The attitude of people working in a given setting, including teachers, is considered most important among the factors that are vital for successful inclusion (Hughes, 2006). They should accept the idea of school inclusion/integration and believe that a child should be in their setting. In the article, the Authors presented the findings of quantitative research conducted in 2012 among 138 teachers. The research subject were the opinions of special, integrated and mainstream teachers on teaching students with special educational needs and on their experiences in this area. The analysis showed teachers’ increasing openness (as compared to 2003) to inclusive education and statistically significant differences in attitudes toward inclusion for students with different disabilities among teachers working in different types of schools.
