    (Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 2025-07) Hana Etana; Tilahun Achaw (PhD)
    This study assessed the challenges inhibiting effective inclusive education for selected Kolfe Keranio Sub-city schools in Addis Ababa. Through a qualitative approach and descriptive design, data collection took place through semi-structured interviews and observation with general education teachers, school administrators/deans, and SNE specialists. This study found that critical challenges inhibiting effective inclusion exist in teacher training and funding, access to assistive technology, and adapted resources for learning and participation. The greatest challenge inhibiting effective inclusion exists in the ideological approach to an inclusive education policy, where policy suggestions remain vague and assessments fail. Furthermore, low stakeholder engagement was noted. As a result, this study concludes that effective inclusion at these Kolfe Keranio Sub-city schools is challenged and limited by training, resource, policy, and facilities challenges that can only be addressed with far-reaching critical attention. Time dedicated to training teachers, redrafting best-practice policy to fit the situational need,increasing stakeholders engagement.
