This book challenges the assumption that special schools are a
second-best educational option for their pupils. It celebrates the
success and importance of special schools within England and the
support of local education authorities (LEAs) in maintaining them.
Full of examples highlighting good practice, including the views of
parents, pupils and ex-pupils who have all experienced a positive
special school education, the book:
- clearly outlines the principles at the heart of the inclusion
debate
- discusses the tension in schools between raising standards and
being inclusive
- assesses the future role of special schools
- offers an alternative vision of 'optimal education' for each
child.
Celebrating the Special School will be of interest to parents of
children attending special schools or considering placement, LEA
officers, special school staff, staff working in units for pupils
with SEN and parents of these children.
