Abstract

his article examines the development of communicative competence in visually impaired primary school students. Communicative competence is considered a fundamental component of academic achievement, social participation, and personal development. The study aimed to analyze the factors influencing communication development among visually impaired learners and identify effective pedagogical approaches for enhancing their communication skills. A qualitative literature review was conducted using scientific publications, educational reports, and scholarly sources related to special and inclusive education. The findings indicate that visual impairment may affect social interaction, nonverbal communication, and pragmatic language use. However, inclusive educational environments, specialized teaching methods, assistive technologies, collaborative learning activities, and family support significantly contribute to the improvement of communicative competence. The study concludes that a comprehensive and inclusive approach is essential for fostering communication skills and promoting successful educational and social outcomes among visually impaired primary school students.
