基於獨特的歷史背景，加上東西文化頻繁往來的交流與歷練，以及政、經等環境的演化和變遷，對香港特殊教育政策的制定有一定的影響，香港的教育決策者、施政人員，協同前線同工，近年逐步摸索而推出一套略有所成，但仍須繼續加以改進且依序提昇，以便更擴大推廣的「全校參與」融合教育實行模式。此模式之優劣處有其值得探討和大家研究的地方。本文旨在就實現融合教育的發展做初步綜合介紹，並搭配亞太其他地區的互動經驗，與非正式研究所得到的一些結論，做一個簡咯的報告。藉以拋磚引玉，廣邀同行先進，深入討論，追求有更高品質的成就，來嘉惠學子。 Hong Kong's unique historical background and frequent exchange of Eastern and Western cultures and experiences, plus the recent evolution in political and economic situations, may have been the catalyst for the development of today's whole school approach model for inclusive education by policy makers, administrators, and frontline practitioners.

香港課程改革，乃是順應當前時段的需要，雖不免會為一般學校帶來負擔，其實亦能給予機會，提升教育質素。然而，有人說，課改指引往往偏重主流學校，與特殊學校(特別是嚴重弱智學校)的兒童的學力傾向搭配不上，需要加以調整和活用，才能銜接起來。本文初步介紹多所特殊學校工作人員在這方面的努力，並作出一般建議。特校同工每日忙碌之中，往往想要的不僅是由上而下達的指令，更盼望有持續的研討、進修機會，和豐富的教學資源與支援。特校同工應以課程改革指引為基礎，推動以學會學習、全人發展、終身學習，配合以學生為本的高品質教學內容，致力促進特教子弟們的共通能力，同時亦需包涵各個有實效的學習領域；我們亦應鼓勵第一線教職人員，在政策領導與高等教育專業人士的技術支援之下，全程參與、主導，以增加更佳成效。
