The results of the study showed that the implementation of inclusive education policies at SD Negeri Piyeung, Aceh Besar Regency was considered good, with an achievement of 65%. Communication is an aspect that still needs a lot of improvement, as is disposition which has not been implemented properly. Meanwhile, the aspect that is already the best is resources.
