ABSTRACT. This research was conducted in Wakiso district Kakiri sub county in three selected schools, the purpose of this research was to investigate the challenges of accessing all-inclusive Education services by Children with disabilities (CWDs) in the area. The population of Wakiso district was estimated at 1,997,418 by the National population and Housing Census 2014 (NPHC) and The Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) while that of Kakiri was estimated at 19,449 by the National Population Census 2014. The selected schools included sentema C.O.U primary school, Glorious piimary school and kikadwa primary school all located in kakiri sub county in Wakiso district.. It is important to note that, In Uganda the 1995 Constitution and the Government White Paper on Education 1992 all reaffirm the vitality of education to the nation. This has resulted into the government adopting education for all pupils under Universal Primary Education (UPE) Programme in 1997 for all school- going age in which access, equity, quality and relevance were guaranteed. However, children with disability have not been beneficiaries in accordance to the objectives and methods of implementation of this program as disability creates considerable social, economic and emotional cost to children with disabilities, their family and to the wider com’rnunity towards realization of their educational right. Research studies have been conducted to establish the remedies in question, contrary little is known about the Wakiso perspective. The literature sources available indicate a multiplicity of factors at play that are both socio-cultural, economic and political in nature. This research study was conducted in Wakiso District and three schools were chosen. An exploratory study design was used and the study population was a total of 50 respondents comprising of parents, CWDs and teachers, Non- probability sampling procedures that is to say, purposive and snow ball sampling were used as the researcher considered people already knowledgeable and those who could lead him to the next respondents respectively. Data was collected using the following methods, literature reviews, interviewing and questionnaires. Basing on the research findings it can be concluded that CWDs are faced with a cross range of hindrances to access all inclusive education services. Their participation rate in schools in negligible, school classrooms and the school environment is not disability friendly despite their diverse educational needs. In a nutshell, all inclusive education services should be commended in increasing CWDs access to education .However, there is need to improve UPE (I 997) legislation by making it mandatory incorporating a module on Special Needs in both pre and post teacher trainings, provision of scholastic materials, revision of the current curriculum, initiating extra — curricular activities in and out of schools, change of parental attitude and ensuring participation of all stakeholders in policy formulation dissemination and implementation.
