ABSTRACT
Education integration is a new educational concept and process, which accommodates all students, opposes discrimination and exclusion, promotes active participation, pays attention to collective cooperation, and meets different needs. Through research, it is hoped that the regional education administrative departments will pay further attention to and attach importance to integrated education in schools. In this paper, the mixed research on the attitude of ordinary primary school teachers towards integrated education is carried out, mainly through a questionnaire survey of 150 teachers in a primary school, aiming at the present situation of the attitude of primary school teachers towards integrated education. Through SPSS21.0 and Excel statistical software, the collected questionnaire data are statistically analyzed and tested. The research shows that ordinary primary school teachers hold a positive attitude towards integrated education as a whole. Through independent sample T-test, it is found that the acceptance of ordinary primary school teachers with special education-related training is significantly higher than that of those without relevant training (t = 1.42, p = 0.04). It is suggested that the relevant contents of inclusive education should be included in the continuing education training plan of ordinary primary school teachers, and action research should be carried out to understand the influence of multiple variables on teachers' attitude towards inclusive education and its mechanism.
