The research consisted of 47 school principals employed at 47 primary schools using inclusive education under Kocaeli Provincial Directorate of National Education.

They did not get any information before inclusive education and did not have enough preparations for the inclusion, they did not get any aid and support in inclusion applications, there were not any special education teachers in inclusive primary schools, inclusive students did not get sufficient supportive educational services, teachers did not sufficiently apply individualised education programs and, therefore, they faced a lack of education materials.
