Challenges faced by inclusive general education and special education
The development of inclusive education in 2 1 century has brought great challenges to general education and special education in China. This challenge mainly lies in the educational system, educational practice and educational ideas. Facing the exam-oriented education, China proposed the reform of quality education. Quality education has been advocated for many years. If we want to promote inclusive education again, is it not conducive to the development of quality education? The answer is no.

The essence of quality education is to advocate that education should be centered on improving people's comprehensive quality, with moral education as the guide and innovation as the breakthrough. Innovation must have an atmosphere and conditions suitable for innovation. The atmosphere of innovation is based on freedom, unity, harmony and cooperation. It is difficult to innovate in an atmosphere of oppression, exclusion, disharmony and non-cooperation. The atmosphere of innovation is actually that people should have high comprehensive quality and basic social values. The conditions for innovation are broad vision, outstanding ability and perseverance.

Inclusive education is actually advocating such an atmosphere and conditions. Inclusive education advocates creating an atmosphere of caring for everyone in schools, strengthening cooperation, opposing exclusion and discrimination, teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, promoting the participation of all students and giving full play to their initiative and creativity.

Therefore, there is no contradiction between advocating inclusive education and implementing quality education, which is beneficial to and in line with the development of quality education. The key to the reform of quality education is the reform of curriculum teaching. The curriculum reform in China has entered the second stage. The focus of curriculum reform lies in our understanding and development of curriculum.

The curriculum teaching view of inclusive education holds that the curriculum should meet the needs of children, not the needs of children. Therefore, schools should provide opportunities to study various courses and develop diversified teaching methods to adapt to students with different abilities and interests.

The curriculum teaching view of inclusive education fully conforms to the development trend of international education curriculum view and the guiding principle of curriculum reform in China. Internationally, the teaching concepts of various courses are constantly innovating. Structuralism, constructivism, post-modernism and other ideological trends have brought great impact on curriculum reform, and curriculum reform in China has also been greatly affected. In short, the focus of curriculum teaching reform is to pay more attention to students' experience and promote them to construct their own knowledge; Courses are for students, not students studying for courses; The first consideration in course teaching is the diversity of students and their respective personalities.
