Generally, we can conclude about existing of the personal and social identity- self-concept about oneself as the unique personality in the group to which it belongs or perception of oneself in the context of mutual with the members of it`s group as with differences in relations to other groups. Individualsposses many different individual and social identities depending on the importance of some social group for it in given moment. Forming of the identity is the process which begins in the childhood, even it is the most intensive in the period of adolescence. The special significance in forming of the identity have persons from the closest child`s environment, primary family, then other agents of the socialization as preschool and school teachers, peers, mas medias ect. Inclusive education refers to work with children with special needs which implies social inclusion. Child enters to different social relationships which influence on their personal and social identity. Peer`s groups in the kindergartens, classes in schools represent specific social communities which perform their social roles. Educational institutions relay on mutual values and patterns and help children to relate to each other in the meaningful way and to the society as a whole. The central question is what inclusion means to the individual. As the identity is relied on the self-concept, and it is mainly formed based on the picture that others have about us, acceptance of the child with special needs by other children influence to the elements of identity which is in formatting. There, the aim of this article is the analysis of the potentials of the social relationships’ role in the process of inclusive education on forming of the identity and its consequences as self-respect, feeling of self-efficiency, adequate relationships with others ect.
