The aim of this paper is to illustrate a system of added support created by special educators and rehabilitators working in School for primary and secondary education with a dormitory “Vuk Karadžić” in the administrative area of Sombor, Republic of Serbia. According to official school documentation there where a total of 130 requests for additional support submitted for the 2017/18 school year, from pre-school institutions, as well as schools, in the administrative area of Sombor. Of that, 10 requests (7.69%) were sent from pre-school institutions in the city of Sombor, and 15 requests (11.53%) from surrounding villages. 65 requests (50%) were submitted by elementary schools located in Sombor, and 40 requests (30.77%) from the villages in the administrative area of Sombor. Pupils with intellectual disabilities, disorders in the field of pervasive developmental disorders, as well as persons with motor and speech disorders, are the most common users of additional support. This type of support in education represents a significant area of work when children with disabilities are concerned; hence it is our belief that this segment of work should be better developed throughout the country. Additional support is of great help to children with disabilities and to their teachers and educators, as well as parents, in the process of overcoming all the difficulties that they face when transitioning to an inclusive society in the educational system. In the long run, an analysis such as this one can help address possible difficulties that all participants in the process of education and training are faced with.
