One of the significant advances in this regard is the law on children with need of special education numbered 2916 which came into effect on 12 October 1983. Also, there are legal regulations about the inclusive educational practices. The aim of this study is to describe and analyse the legal regulations on inclusive education in Turkey in the period of 1983-2020. In the study document analysis which is part of the qualitative research methods is employed. The findings of the research show that there have been different circulars about inclusive education at different time periods and with different content. The findings of the research also show appropriate integration models for the education of children with special needs will be adopted and implemented at special education schools and institutions. These statements indicate the expanded the rights of children with special needs to education.
