Abstract
This study is a report based on a questionnaire for elementary and junior high school teachers who are in charge of school children with intellectual disability. The main focus of this report is the children's urinary incontinence and the difficulties faced by the teachers when the children use the toilet.
The report confirms that a fairly large number of teachers perceive difficulties with regard to the excretory process of school children with intellectual disability. It also shows that many of the difficulties are strongly related to spatial elements. It also highlights the fact that so far, numerous environmental arrangements have been considered and undertaken to deal with the excretory process of such children.
