The objectives of this study were to describe the characteristics of both the disabled students who receive the inclusive education at normal schools and their parents and to determine the correlation between those characteristics and the parent’s satisfactions with inclusive education and services in order to provide an effective operating system and basic information for a program development. For the research, the special education teachers from 38 normal schools, that offered special classrooms for teaching disabled students, located in Suwon city delivered the surveys to the parents of disabled students receiving the inclusive education. Out of 270 questionnaires of the survey administered, 215 (79.6%) were collected from the parents but after data screening, finally 206 questionnaires (76.3%) were used for the analysis. Major findings of this study are as the followings: First, there are three times as many as the disabled female students as there are the disabled male students who participate in inclusive education. Younger the students and the parents of the disabled students, more they expend and use the facilities for after-school rehabilitation, treatment, and education. Next, the parents are highly satisfied with the physical educational environment but not so much with the articulation of the school, home and community, and administrative and financial supports. Third, depending on school grade level, the level of the parents’ satisfactions differed with the special education teachers’ and the regular teachers’ competencies and endowments, and so did their interest in children’s educational program. Based on the findings, some recommendations were made in the paper.
