Recently, educational activities considering the aspects of quality of life (QOL) are required in special needs education for children with disabilities. It has not yet been clarified about the effect on educational outcomes due to differences in the type of disability of the student. In this study, we used Special Needs Education Assessment Tool (SNEAT) which is a tool for evaluating the educational outcome of the classes on children with disabilities to determine factors affecting aspects of psychology, physiology and pathology for children with intellectual disability and children with multiple disabilities. Especially we investigated the influence factors focusing on the physical functioning and mental health which are two of 3 domains of SNEAT. As for the factors affecting the physical functioning score and the mental health score, four factors were clearly identified: the student’s grade level, the teacher’s possession of a special teaching certificate, the type of disability of the student, and the sex of teacher. This result indicated that these factors influenced psychology, physiology and pathology for children with intellectual disability and children with multiple disabilities and were found to be more likely to appear as educational outcomes.
