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.
