Abstract :
Inclusive education is a beacon of hope, igniting a passion for learning, and nurturing an inclusive society that
embraces diversity, equality and limitless potential of every individual. Inclusive education aims to provide equal
opportunities for all students, including those with special needs, in mainstream classrooms. The effectiveness of inclusive
education relies heavily on the knowledge and skills of the teacher who implement it. However, there is a concern that the
current B.Ed. curriculum of Calicut University may not adequately prepare teacher educators with the practical
knowledge and skills to effectively teach in inclusive classrooms. Thus, the primary objective of this research is to evaluate
the current B.Ed. curriculum of Calicut University, with specific emphasis on the insufficient practical knowledge related
to effectively engaging in an inclusive education environment. This study aims to examine the present status of inclusive
education training, pinpoint areas where practical application is insufficient, and suggest recommendations for improving
the curriculum to better equip educators for future classrooms. To achieve this the study will employ mixed methods
approach, involving interviews, analysis of lesson plans and examination of curriculum. The findings of this research will
shed light on the gaps in practical application of inclusive education.
