The journal reflects the results of scientific research of fundamental and applied nature. The authors of the articles are scientists, doctoral students, undergraduates from the Republic of Kazakhstan, near and far abroad. Practical materials of employees of special (correctional) and General education organizations are regularly published in the Bulletin. The special sections of the Bulletin address the most important areas of special and inclusive education identified in the normative documents as strategic, as well as acute current problems and issues in the field of study, education and development of children with disabilities. 

The editorial Board of the Bulletin of KazNPU named after Abai series of "Special pedagogy" consists of doctors of Sciences of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Poland, Germany and Belarus: Namazbayeva Z. I., Z. A. Movkebayeva, ewa Maria Kulesza, Ludmila Hoppe, Tatiana Lisovskaya; candidates of Sciences A. N. Autaeva, L. H. Makina, Omirbek S.J., and other famous scientists.

The process of development of the journal is progressive.  The most significant events in the history of the journal Bulletin of KazNPU named after Abai series "Special pedagogy" were as follows:

1) 2009-2010 the Scientific journal is included in the list of The Committee on control of education ( KKSON - VAK);

2) 2012: the inclusion in the composition of the editorial Board of foreign and domestic scientists, the media, the unquestioned scientific authority in the field of defectology, namely, V. V. Voronkova, L. B. Baraeva, L. R. Muminova, I. Karagiozova. The inclusion of these scientists in the editorial Board served as the basis for improving the scientific quality of the articles;

3), 2012, 2013, 2014 according to the official Information of JSC "KazNTU", the magazine was rated non - zero impact factor ( 0,022,0,04,0,09) at the Kazakhstan citation base, which dramatically raised the scientific popularity of the magazine. However, the editorial Board has increased the demands in the selection of articles on the criteria of scientometrics.

Now the editors consider it important to invite authors and readers to the creation and discussion of materials related to the most relevant, of great practical interest, the topic. We propose to reflect on the issue of updating education in the context of meeting the special needs of children and adolescents with special educational needs.

            In January 2018, there was a significant update of the editorial Board.  The team was strengthened by young, full of energy and creative ideas, employees, which strengthens our confidence in the progressive development of the Bulletin of the series "Special pedagogy" in all areas, including innovation and commercialization (Deputy editor – PhD Dr. Butabaeva L.A., responsible Secretary  Sardarova Z.O.). All changes taking place in the activities of the journal and the Department of Special education, should mean an increase in the quality of articles - their knowledge-intensive and topical issues with the expansion of the coverage of readers. According to the long-term planning, 75% or more of the articles should be related to the dissertation research submitted for defense to the newly opened dissertation Council. These works will have an innovative, research orientation, Articles of undergraduates and doctoral students should become a creative report or a reserve for future research experimental and applied activities within the framework of master's and doctoral theses.
