Education is a human right that plays a key role in social and economic development. Children having active epilepsy may not be properly schooled in ordinary school structures. Students with epilepsy (SWE) are often faced with academic barriers. The lack of information about the current status of special education for SWE obliged the researchers to try to describe the existing reality of the special education practices in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. We disseminated a simple self-administered questionnaire via email to main healthcare professionals involved in epilepsy care in the MENA region, and we also did a literature search on the PubMed, Google Scholar, and Embase engines. We ranked the countries in terms of their educational system. The 1st group contains the most advanced educational system, including specialized schools for SWE. The 2nd group contains an educational system with specialized but less structured schools. The 3rd group includes countries using integrated classes or classes mixing many children with cognitive disabilities. The 4th group includes countries with ordinary classes for SWE, and finally, the 5th group with no schooling for children with epilepsy (CWE). This study indicates that 60% of the countries in the MENA region belong to the 3rd group; there is only one country in each of the first two groups. This work highlights the need to develop structured environments for schooling for SWE in the MENA region.

中东和北非 (MENA) 地区的癫痫和学校:现状、挑战和解决方案

教育是一项在社会和经济发展中发挥关键作用的人权。患有活动性癫痫的儿童可能无法在普通学校结构中接受适当的教育。癫痫学生 (SWE) 经常面临学业障碍。由于缺乏关于 SWE 特殊教育现状的信息,研究人员不得不尝试描述中东和北非 (MENA) 地区特殊教育实践的现有现实。我们通过电子邮件向 MENA 地区参与癫痫护理的主要医疗保健专业人员散发了一份简单的自我管理问卷,我们还在 PubMed、Google Scholar 和 Embase 引擎上进行了文献搜索。我们根据国家的教育体系对这些国家进行排名。第一组包含最先进的教育系统,包括 SWE 的专门学校。第二组包含具有专业化但结构性较差的学校的教育系统。第三组包括使用综合班级或混合班级的国家,包括许多患有认知障碍的儿童。第 4 组包括为 SWE 开设普通班级的国家,最后是第 5 组癫痫儿童 (CWE) 未上学。该研究表明,中东和北非地区 60% 的国家属于第三组;前两组中的每一组都只有一个国家。这项工作强调了为 MENA 地区的 SWE 学校教育开发结构化环境的必要性。第三组包括使用综合班级或混合班级的国家/地区。第 4 组包括为 SWE 开设普通班级的国家,最后是第 5 组癫痫儿童 (CWE) 未上学。该研究表明,中东和北非地区 60% 的国家属于第三组;前两组中的每一组都只有一个国家。这项工作强调了为 MENA 地区的 SWE 学校教育开发结构化环境的必要性。第三组包括使用综合班级或混合班级的国家/地区。第 4 组包括为 SWE 开设普通班级的国家,最后是第 5 组癫痫儿童 (CWE) 未上学。该研究表明,中东和北非地区 60% 的国家属于第三组;前两组中的每一组都只有一个国家。这项工作强调了为 MENA 地区的 SWE 学校教育开发结构化环境的必要性。
