4-years after the initial implementation of the project, 1,000 of the 1,078 students who participated were successfully integrated into classrooms in Thoung Tin and Tu Liem.

The main conclusions include the following:

• Administrators and teachers in the districts credit the project for major changes in teaching attitudes, including the belief in the feasibility of inclusive education. (Expectations of educational reforms had been very limited, and there were no resources, let alone any interest in it.)
• Reports of increased teacher sensitivity to the needs of disabled people
• Reports of a general positive attitude toward inclusion within communities
• Parents assumed a more optimistic view for children’s future

Changes attributed to the project include an overall expansion of inclusion efforts.

• 1997: Vietnam abolished a ban on baring children from attending preschools.
• 1998: The state declared that students had the choice to go to regular to special schools, with the Ministry of Education also declaring that 90% of children with special educational needs can attend regular schools.
