This study was conducted to investigate the challenges
of students for the school of special needs in Kwara State. The descriptive
survey research design was used by the researchers for the study. The purposive
and simple random techniques were used in selecting 200 special needs students
in the school. The questionnaire titled “Challenges of the Students in the
School For Special Needs Questionnaire” (CSSSNQ) was administered by the
researchers with the help of trained assistance to the respondents in order to
elicit information from the sampled respondents. The items of the questionnaire
were content validated and test re-test method was used to determine the
reliability coefficient of 0.79. The major challenge of these students was
their difficulty to relate unimpaired persons. Percentages were used to present
the demographic data, while t-test and Analysis of Variance were used to test
the four generated hypotheses. There were no significant differences found in
the challenges of students of special needs school in  Kwara State on the basis of  gender, age, religious affiliation and their
type of disability. Based on the findings of this study, it was recommended
that alternative educational activities should be provided for these
exceptional children. Also, the counselors can give social support to these
children through counseling.
