Data was collected from three schools existing in Quetta city for disabled children. The collected data was analyzed and was presented in tubular and graphic form. According to results there were only small number of institutions for disabled children’s. In Quetta two basic departments are working for the development of special children, education department and social welfare department. There was a weak communication system between these two departments. Some non-government organizations are also working for the education of special children. Very limited budget were allocated for the welfare and education of special education. There were only limited number of institutions for special children run by government of Balochistan. And a small number of institution were also run by private sector. Lack of basic facilities especially human resource like psychologist and physiotherapist were observed in every institution. There were also a shortage of some physical facilities like wheel chair, sticks and the provision of artificial hands and legs for disabled children. The results show that the special children were handled like normal children. The teachers were found untrained and there were no professional training programs for teachers. It is concluded that the parent teacher association is very important towards most favorable care related to disabled children. Through building emotional health of children and through providing more supportive mechanism for children would result in success towards positive association among parent and teacher. It is advocated that educators are required to make an example by avoiding families from annoyance. If the families are invited and welcomed in the classrooms and take their suggestions regarding the provision of physical facilities that would be more and more helpful for children as well as both educators and parents. According to the suggestions of the participants who contributed in this study that more and more trainings should be organized for the management of the schools, by government and for the benefits of students, trained teachers should be arranged those must be specialized in their subject and the teachers must use some extra techniques in their teaching to enhance the quality of their teaching
