Abstract
This study assessed parents' satisfaction with online education for learners with special needs at the elementary level during the school year 2020–2021. It employed the mixed method of research in gathering data for the profile and status of online education for learners with special needs and in investigating the issues encountered by the parents in the implementation of online education. Simple percentage, weighted mean, standard deviation and chi-square test of independence were used to analyse the data. The results showed that parents have no problem attending online classes with their learners and utilising different technological applications for online education. It also showed no significant relationship between parents’ profile and the level of satisfaction towards online education. The common issue encountered by parents in the implementation of online education during the COVID-19 pandemic was Internet connectivity. Thus, it is recommended that enhanced interactive learning materials for learners with special needs be adopted.
