المستخلص

يعتبر التنمر المدرسي من السلوكيات الشائعة التي تحدث بين الطلبة في المدارس العادية. هدفت هذه الدراسة الكيفية إلى تسليط الضوء على آراء المعلمات والطلبة ذوي الإعاقة حول التنمر المدرسي في المدارس العادية في دولة الكويت، وذلك من خلال إجراء المقابلات الشخصية مع عينة قوامها (3) طلبة من ذوي الإعاقة في كلية التربية الأساسية للتعرف على خبراتهم السابقة حول التنمر المدرسي. وشملت العينة أيضاً (4) معلمات للفصول الخاصة في المدارس العادية في الكويت. دلت النتائج في هذه الدراسة على أن التنمر المدرسي هو من أبرز العوائق التي واجهها الطلبة ذوي الإعاقة في المدارس العادية. كما دلت النتائج على وجود آثار سلبية للتنمر المدرسي على الطلبة ذوي الإعاقة مثل العزلة الاجتماعية وتجنب الصداقات مع الطلبة العاديين وتجنب المشاركة الاجتماعية في الأنشطة المدرسية. أوصت الدراسة بضرورة تعزيز ثقافة الدمج بين الطلبة العاديين وزيادة درجة الوعي في المجتمع حول كيفية التعامل مع الأفراد ذوي الإعاقة قبل تطبيق الدمج التعليمي في المدارس العادية.
