THEORETICAL ASPECTS OF THE PHYSICAL EDUCATION TEACHERS' ATTITUDES TOWARDS STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES

This article reflects some aspects of research dedicated to the formation of a positive attitude towards the inclusion of children with disabilities in physical education teachers. Exploring the theoretical dimensions of the stated topic, the author reveals the connection between the attitudes of physical education teachers and psycho-pedagogical strategies, based on the identification of sources of negative/ stigmatic attitudes and sources of positive/ promotional attitudes (inclusive). The training program, proposed by the author, contributes to a certain extent to the understanding by teachers of their role in inclusive education, accepting that the inclusion of students with disabilities in regular classes is not a problem but an opportunity.
