The specificity of tutor support for children with disabilities at social and cultural events

An urgent issue of modern education is the socialization and adaptation of children with disabilities in the proposed inclusive environment, while it is necessary to take into account that this process is complicated by the individual psychological and physiological characteristics of the child. The study is aimed at research the specifics of the work of teachers-tutors with children with disabilities in an inclusive space of socio-cultural events. The objectives of the study include identifying the need for interaction between teachers, teachers-tutors and other persons working with children with disabilities, considering the professional characteristics of a teacher-tutor and analyzing the full range of functions performed by a teacher-tutor in a socio-cultural event. The research methodology includes working with scientific sources and conducting a sociological survey. During the research activity carried out on the basis of the annual open All-Russian festival of Children’s and Youth creativity within the framework of inclusive education “Under the wing of Good”, the process of the teacher-tutor’s work during the inclusive event was analyzed. The results showed that children with disabilities, accompanied by teachers-tutors, were more likely to be able to adapt to the proposed conditions and take part in several sections of the festival.
