Mainstream or Special? Summary

The method of meeting the demands of special needs pupils in school is still much debated. The way in which Australia, the UK and Canada have dealt with this problem is looked at in this book with all the major issues being examined.

Examining how Australia, the UK and Canada have tried to meet the needs of pupils with special educational needs, this book looks at the major issues, types of provisions and resourcing which have been offered and a vision of the future.

This book aims to stimulate debate about educational options for students with disabilities. Taking a critical approach to assumptions underlying special education in both integrated and segregated settings, Jo Jenkinson draws on recent research, current practices and real life examples from Australia, the United Kingdom and Canada. Part I clarifies important issues including normalisation, least restrictive environment and the right to integrated education. Part II presents four models of educational provision for students with disabilities: the special school, link schools, the special unit or class and the regular classroom. Part III focuses on the debate about curriculum for students with disabilities, and Part IV offers an international perspective on special education and considers possible future developments in provision.
