The results of the study revealed that there were statistical differences on the level of need for teaching assistants according to gender variable among the sample for female teachers. However, the results showed statistically significant differences at only three domains of five on the level of the need for teaching assistants due to the difference in the type of disability of the students who are treated by the sample members.
