  ABSTRACT: In the present study, the aim was to explore the views of preschool teachers in relation to the challenges faced by children with intellectual disabilities in their school integration. To achieve this, four research questions were prepared and a quantitative survey was conducted through a questionnaire. Initially, the theoretical framework of Mental Disability and Integration was presented, on which the whole subsequent study was based. Subsequently, research related to the subject was reviewed and data were identified for further investigation. The whole research process followed the design of the educational quantitative research, where the issues of ethics, as well as those of validity and reliability, were ensured. This was followed by an analysis of the collected data, with the Spss program as well as their detailed presentation. The research questions were then discussed in relation to whether they were answered by the research process and in relation to the theoretical background. Finally, the research difficulties and the proposals for further research are presented.
