Purpose: Education policy is considered as a core document developed to ensure the educational rights of all
children including the children with disabilities. By considering the fact, every nation design its educational
policy to ensure access to basic education for all school-age children. Nepal Government has also been
formulating different educational policies to ascertain educational rights of every child including the children
with disabilities. Method: However, a group of children are still out of schools and this study was carried out
to analyze different special educational policies through the lens of four dimensions of policy theory. For this
purpose, the required data were collected from two sources namely primary and secondary sources and then
analyzed respectively by applying qualitative data analysis process. Results: The study results indicate that the
special education policies formulated before 1996 focused on normative dimension but the policies introduced
between 1996 to 2016 emphasized on normative and structural dimensions with clear ideological shift in
education. Conclusion: Finally, Inclusive Education Policy-2017 has emphasized highly on constituent and
technical dimension and attached value to normative and structural dimensions as before. Thus, currently
developed policy has attempted to encompass all dimensions of policy theory.
