It is based on the questionnaire of the international research project on the study of subjective well-being of children "Detsky Mir" Children's World and the questionnaire of T.Booth, M.Einscow. Main results of research: a decrease in the level of assessment of subjective well-being with an increase in the class of study; a difference in grades depending on gender; a tendency to link well-being and an inclusive environment at school; a difference in the assessment of factors of subjective well-being and an inclusive environment of normotypical and students with disabilities. It is shown that one of the tools for the formation of an inclusive educational space can be socio-emotional learning.

The construction of this model will ensure the necessary level of openness and accessibility of modern school education.
