Extractions: of Children With Special Needs" Many school-aged children with handicaps are transported in school buses. A recent amendment to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act has established requirements for infants and toddlers to have access todevelopmental and rehabilitation facilities. This amendment, to Part H of the Individuals with Disabitilites Education Act (enacted as part of Public Law 102-119), however, does not specify how these children are to be transported to these facilities, a responsibility that will be faced by many school systems. FMVSS 222 (School Bus Passenger Seaating and Crash Protection) established safety requirements for school bus interiors, but to date it only applied to ablebodied children. However, an amendment to FMVSS 222 becomes effective in January 1994 that applies to the securement of wheelchairs and their occupants in school buses. National recommended standards for special education school buses were revised in May 1990 by the Eleventh National Standards Conference on School Transportation.

Extractions: February 1998 (Updated March 2002) ERIC Clearinghouse for Science, Mathematics, and Environmental Education DIGEST Legal resolutions, concerns of parents, and new research on learning and socialization have led to widespread efforts to place students wih special needs in regular classrooms, a practice known as inclusion. According to the report on Women, Minorities, and Persons with Disabilities in Science and Engineering (1996), approximately 6% of children in the United States were in federally-supported special educational programs during the 1992-1993 school year, up 1.5% from 15 years earlier. The number of disabled students participating in regular classrooms has risen by 10% during the past five years (Roach et al., 1997). The manifestation of particular disabilities varies widely among students with special needs, but over half of the identified disabilities are learning disabilities. Other disabilities include speech and language difficulties, mental retardation, and serious emotional difficulties. Physical disabilities are relatively rare, constituting less than 2% of those identified as having disabilities (Women, Minorities, and Persons with Disabilities in Science and Engineering, 1996). The Consortium on Inclusive Schooling Practices (no date given) has developed a framework for evaluating state and local policies for inclusion "in an effort to help state and local policymakers, practitioners, and families determine if the general educational policies of their state or district support the inclusion of students with disabilities." The Consortium offers six policy goals: (a) curricula that allow for maximum development of individual students; (b) measurable, alternative, appropriate assessment practices; (c) accountability for all members of the educational community; (d) commitment to professional development; (e) sufficient and responsible funding for programs; and (f) governance structures that allow for central support of localized control.

Extractions: Susan Anderson Marci Page, Terri Bodhaine, and Doris Schrupp, Office of Services to Disabled Students, presented the workshop "Students with Special Needs" for the Graduate Teacher Program 1989 Fall Intensive. The Tutor interviewed them, some of their colleagues, and three students who have used their services. T he Office of Services to Disabled Students (OSDS) is a sub-unit of the University Learning Center located in Willard Hall. Ruth Fink directs the office, which includes Services for the Deaf and Hearing Impaired, Services for the Blind and Visually Impaired, Services for the Physically Disabled, and the Learning Disability Program. The staff of the office of Services to Disabled Students work with individual students to meet their needs and to help them to function independently and effectively in the campus community. Though the population of disabled students on the Boulder campus is relatively small, it is concentrated in undergraduate courses. As teaching assistants and graduate part-time instructors work closely with lower division students, knowledge of the resources provided by the OSDS may help them to facilitate the success of their students.

The screening will either show that a child's development is within the "normal" range for his/her age or will serve as an indication that a child may have a special need. Preschool Special Needs Program The Preschool Special Needs Program is a district program serving students with special needs ages 3 to 5. Based at the Town Campus Kindergarten Center, this program includes occupational and physical therapy, speech/language, school psychological and social work services as warranted to meet the needs of individual students.

Extractions: Introduction The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) of 1997 contain important provisions which parents, educators, and advocates can use to make sure that students with disabilities benefit from school reform efforts. IDEA now requires that students with disabilities participate in the general curriculum. In most school districts, the general curriculum directly reflects the standards established by the state or districts education reform initiatives. Therefore, the same high standards created through education reform must apply to students with disabilities. The IDEA provisions listed below underscore that school districts are now responsible and accountable for involvement and progress in the general curriculum and high achievement of all students with disabilities. Evaluations/Re-evaluations Special education evaluations and re-evaluations must include information about the special education, related services, and strategies necessary for a student with a disability to participate and progress in the general curriculum . Evaluations must address the special education services necessary for a student with disabilities to meet the high standards established by most states through education reform initiatives. Individualized Education Program (IEP) Contents IDEA requires that each students IEP contain the following components related to participation in the general curriculum and education reform: IEPs must describe how the students disability affects involvement and progress in the general curriculum.

This site is named after the book Uniquely Gifted: Identifying and Meeting the Needs of the Twice-Exceptional Student , edited by Kiesa Kay. Twice-exceptional children (that is, intellectually gifted children with special needs such as AD/HD, learning disabilities, Asperger Syndrome, etc.) have a hard time of it in our education system - because their giftedness can mask their special needs and their special needs hide their giftedness, they are often labeled as "lazy", "unmotivated", "not trying". Many people don't even realize that a child can be both gifted and learning disabled; however, Linda Silverman, Ph.D., the director of the Gifted Development Center has found that fully 1/6 of the gifted children tested at the GDC have a learning difference of some type I am a special needs educational advisor , as well as co-founder and co-listowner of the GT-Special email list for families with gifted/special needs children - founded because my co-listowner and I needed a place where we could talk with other parents about our uniquely gifted children.

Extractions: These pages apply to England and Wales (and to an extent Scotland). Since 1st September 2002 schools are subject to the DDA . Also very important is special educational needs . Listed below too are a few additional avenues that may be useful. This page deals with a lot of legal and formal stuff on possible discrimination in schools. It is very important to bear in mind though that just it may well be possible to solve a problem just by talking to the relevant people . As an exception to that, I would say that getting a child with a stammer on the special needs register if they meet the requirements may well be a good idea in any event. Note on Scotland: In general England and Wales have different education arrangements from Scotland. I concentrate here on England and Wales. However the DDA and Human Rights Act do also apply in Scotland, and there may be other points with some relevance in Scotland. From 1st September 2002 the DDA applies to schools, in England, Wales and Scotland. See

http://www.specialednews.com/transition/transnews/schooltowork041100.html

Extractions: Site Map April 11, 2000 WASHINGTON The national trend toward greater inclusion of students with disabilities is yielding an encouraging byproduct for both students with special needs and their general ed. peers preparing to leave high school, the U.S. Department of Education says. As part of the increasing opportunities students with special needs have to participate in classes and programs with general ed. students, transition programs are getting more attention from schools and communities. According to the department's Office of Special Education Programs, these transition programs are more frequently being designed with the needs of all students in mind. In its 21st Annual Report to Congress on the implementation of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, OSEP says the results of three separate studies in the mid- to late 1990s show several positive trends in transition program design. In general, OSEP believes inclusion helps ease the transition process from school to adult life for some students with special needs, Assistant Secretary of Education Judy Heumann said when the report was released.
