The aim of this study was to look into classroom participation of students with low vision in inclusive English Language class at Ambo Addis Ketema Primary School. A qualitative research approach along with a case study design was used to investigate the experience of the participants concerning the challenges in the participation of students with low vision in EFL classes at the school. One school principal, two English instructors, five low vision children, five peers without disabilities, the special education teacher, and a supervisor. Generally, a purposive sample method was used to choose 20 individuals. Semi-structured interviews, focused group discussions, and observation were employed as the data collecting tools for the study's purpose to be successful. The data were analyzed thematically in accordance with the research questions. Based on this, it was found that children with limited eyesight did not receive adequate attention in class and as a result, did not participate as well. This was brought on by a lack of instructional tools and resources, including modified textbooks, magnifying glasses, uncomfortable classroom settings, and untrained instructors.
