Abstract

The article presents a parallel drawn between the Inclusive Education Policy and Down Syndrome (DS), aiming to analyze the interactions between inclusive education and DS in different contexts, from the year 2009 to 2013, through a literary review on the online data bases of MEDLINE/PubMed and SCIELO. Considering that the specificities should be respected and served, from the right of expression to the inclusion and permanence in the educational ambit, it is emphasized that the school should be a place where the exercise of an inclusive policy promote the building of a fairer society.
