Intercorrelation presented in this study showed no statistically significant association between the studied variables by pupils and their perceptions of inclusiveness of school, except that pupils who are involved in extracurricular activities are also involved into activities out of school. It is considered that pupils recognize the positive application of implementation of inclusion in their primary schools.
