| description | This study examines the attitudes of Special Educational Needs Assistance
(SENA) and regular teachers towards the push-in programme in Brunei
Darussalam. The instrument used in this study was the Attitudes towards
the Push-in Programme Scale (ATPIPS). The questionnaire consisted of 30
Likert items and eight open-ended questions. The 30 items in the ATPIPS were
divided into six sub-scales: (I) support for the push-in programme, (2)social
and academic needs of students with special needs, (3) barriers to the push-in
programme, (4) benefits of the push-in programme to teachers (S) disadvantages
of the push-in programme to students, and (6)teacher self-eficacy. In addition,
semi-structured interviews of six teachers were conducted. The results show
significant dtfferences in the attitudes towards the push-inprogramme between
the SENA and regular teachers. The SENA teachers have had higher mean
attitudes in the overall scale as well as in the six subscales of ATPIP than the
regular teachers do. Finally, implications and recommendations for policy and
practice, and future drrections for research are discussed
