Abstract
This study examined the implementation of the Special Education Program (SPED) in public elementary schools within the West I and West II Districts, focusing on teachers' practices, strategies, beliefs, and attitudes. Conducted at Sgt. Miguel Canoy Memorial Central School, NAPOCOR Elementary School, and Suarez Elementary School, the research utilized a phenomenological approach to gain deeper insights into teachers' real-life experiences in inclusive classrooms. During the fourth quarter of 2025, qualitative data were gathered through interviews and focus group discussions, offering a comprehensive view of the challenges and strengths associated with SPED implementation. Findings revealed that while teachers commonly used strategies like differentiated instruction, peer learning, and individualized support, they also faced barriers such as limited training, a lack of resources, and large class sizes. Despite these hurdles, many educators showed strong dedication and positive attitudes toward inclusive education. The study emphasizes the importance of ongoing training, enhanced support systems, and more effective implementation of policies to enhance SPED services. It offers practical insights for teachers, school leaders, and policymakers committed to creating more inclusive learning environments.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
