Inclusive Education Implementation in Oman and Indonesia: A Comparative Analysis Study

Findings reveal that Oman's centralized system provides consistent policy coordination but limits community participation and school flexibility. Indonesia's decentralized system allows greater local innovation and community involvement but leads to disparities in implementation quality. Both countries struggle with teacher training, curriculum adaptation, and cultural stigma against disabilities. Effective inclusive education requires a balanced approach combining adaptive centralization and equitable decentralization, ongoing teacher development, flexible curricula, active community engagement, and cultural transformation. These insights offer practical recommendations to strengthen inclusive education in diverse socio-political contexts.
