SUPPORT FOR STUDENTS WITH SPECIFIC NEEDS IN SLOVAKIA AND IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC

The presented study compares theoretical and empirical starting points oriented toward the system of support for students with specific needs at universities in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. The topic is part of the solution of the project E+: Changing Our Story: The Pursuit of Inclusive Education, which focuses on supporting the inclusion of students with specific needs. In tertiary education, only mainstream education is available for students with specific needs, which means creating conditions in which they will be able to develop their potential with a strong, inclusive support system and with the participation of a collaborative team of experts who work directly and indirectly at universities in both countries.
