In fact, an inclusive culture at UPT SD Negeri 263 Gresik has not materialized or has not been developed properly. This is indicated by the continued bullying attitude towards Children with Special Needs (ABK) by regular students and some students do not want to associate or interact with ABK. This study aims to identify and describe the inclusive culture developed by UPT SD Negeri 263 Gresik through "Utari Sendakeb" in order to create a comfortable and friendly school environment. The method used in this research is a qualitative research method with a case study type of research.
