This research thesis studies the accessibility of the 2008 amended education curriculum of 'special' school curriculum to that of 'general' school curriculum focusing on the general guidelines to provide fundamental materials to enhance the quality of educational curriculum of 'special' school curriculum and to strengthen the accessibility to educational curriculum of 'general' school curriculum. In order to do this, the background for the direction of domestic and foreign special schooling and for the emphasis on the accessibility to general school curriculum was examined; and based on the generalities, the accessibility of amended educational curriculum of 'special' school curriculum to that of 'general' school curriculum was analyzed to accomplish the purpose of this thesis on the basis of the implications from the analysis. The particular analysis on the accessibility of general school curriculum on subject curriculum was limited to the level of comparing the general guidelines and particularities, and the research content was studied for through literary researches. The results of this research are as follows. Firstly, looking at the tendency of domestic special curriculum, in case of the Republic of Korea, general curriculum was the standard since the beginning of special curriculum, and differentiated the period of establishment and revision from general curriculum. With the dualistic system, there have been continuous efforts to reflect the particularity of special education in curriculum, and finally with the seventh revision of special school curriculum after numerous trial and error did the effort to promote accessibility to general curriculum begin. The tendency of foreign special curriculum shows that many countries are recently making continuous efforts for special education to have access to general education. Also, the background to placing emphasis on the accessibility of special curriculum to general curriculum can be found in the change in domestic and foreign environment for special education. Domestically, the broadening of inclusive education promoted the aim of improving the quality of special school curriculum and preparing for 'constant revision' system adopted in the 2008 revision of educational curriculum of special school curriculum operated as the major factor. Internationally, it is rooted in the search for the accessibility to general curriculum and the connection between general and special education curriculum. Second of all, after looking at the major revisions of generality and particularity, which is the subject curriculum, of elementary and middle school curriculum, it was found that the major revisions were reflected intactly in the revision of generalities of special curriculum, and even in particularities of subject curriculum. Particularities, however, exclude the basic curriculum of special school curriculum, and High School Specialized Vocational Subjects Curriculum . Moreover, after analyzing the accessibility to general curriculum based on the background and fundamental direction of 2008 revisions of special school curriculum and the constituting contents of general guidelines, it was concluded that in the case of the general guidelines of revised curriculum of elementary and middle school and special curriculum, other than the fact that the early childhood curriculum is included in the special curriculum, and that the organization, formation, and time (unit) allotment are added to the basic curriculum and the specialized vocational subjects of the elective curriculum, the overall organization and contents were common between the two.
