The implementation of inclusive education policies in each region has a different level of success. This research aims to find out how the implementation of inclusive education policies in elementary schools of Surakarta was reviewed from Grindle’s policy implementation theory. The method used in this research is a mixed-methods, which is involving 102 respondents and 9 informants from 12 inclusive schools.

The results showed that the implementation of inclusive education policy had a positive impact on the students and their environment, with the level of implementation of inclusive education is 76.8%, therefore the efforts are needed to optimize the implementation of inclusive education policies in the form of training for teachers and providing of supporting infrastructures.
