Should special education students be in classes with regular students?
Yes, this is called mainstreaming. Not only does the special needs child learn skills in a mainstreamed classroom, but so do the other members of the class. In most cases the special needs child only spends a few hours in the regular classroom and then goes to a special education teacher for the rest of the day. As a classroom teacher I have always opened my room to special needs students because I think all benefit from the experience.

Do you believe students with developemental disorders should be integrated in general classes with the students without devlopemental disabilities?
I am a special education teacher--I have been teaching now for 12 years. I have worked with a very wide range of children with disabilities. I believe there are many factors that should go into deciding if a child should be in a regular classroom. Factors such as; what is the students disability and how severe that disability is, does the student have the social skills that it takes to be in the general classroom and the type of regular classroom teacher will be with that child. Many regular classroom teacher deal very well with special needs students. But I have seen some who don't deal well with special needs children well. These teachers need to know how to modify to the needs of that students. If these students get with the wrong teachers then that hurts everyone in the classroom. It is not fair for the student with the disability, the teacher and the other children that are in the classroom. Each students needs to be evaluated and all these factors need to be taken into account. We do many different things where I teach. Some students are in a special education room all day--some are pulled out for special services for 50min-2 hrs and 3 hrs. Sometimes the special education teacher even goes into the general education room and works with the special needs child. We all need to remember that every child is different and learns at a different way and at different paces.

What does is mean if a child has a statement of special needs?
A statement of special needs is a legal document put together by health and education professionals, in conjunction with parents. The statement lists the childs different identified needs, such as behaviour, learning, physical, medical and self help ect. To be granted a statement, the child must have significant needs over other children of their age. These needs are so significant, a statement is required to enable extra support and provision for the child. The statement makes clear what people working with the child need to do, what the targets and outcomes for the child need to be, what extra support the goverment will pay for, and what extra support is needed outside of school (non educational).

They may need things to be broken down for them or more repetition, or maybe even a slower pace.

What kind of doctor specializes in special-needs kids?
That depends on the special needs of the child which could be: serious medical conditions; emotional and behavioral disorders; difficulties with cognitive functioning; learning disabilities; psychiatric disorders; history of abuse or neglect; medical or genetic risk due to familial mental illness or parental substance abuse. A child with significant special needs will most likely require the care of more than one medical specialist. The child's primary care doctor is usually the pediatrician, who refers the child to other specialists given the child's specific needs. There are a whole range of pediatric medical subspecialists that provide focused care depending on the needs.
Special Education Services for Special Needs Children?
Raising a special needs child presents unique challenges for many parents. Specialist physicians, expensive medications, and behavioral or learning difficulties are all possible hurdles that may be faced by parents. In the case of education, it is important to have a strong support system in place and to make the child’s school aware of the situation as early as possible. Appropriate special education services can be developed after an IEP, or Individualized Education Plan, is established. In the United States, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act mandates that all children who meet the guidelines as persons with disabilities have an IEP in place. The purpose of the IEP is to ensure that special needs children receive an education appropriate to their circumstances. IEPs are reviewed and updated annually, and set suitable education goals for the special needs child at each grade level. Disabilities that make a child eligible for special services may be physical, behavioral, or learning-related and may include autism, Down’s syndrome, and developmental delay. The first step in acquiring special education services is a referral by a school administrator or physician. If it is suspected the child will need such services, a meeting will be scheduled with a school guidance counselor or psychologist. At the meeting, the child’s individual needs will be discussed, as well as necessary testing procedures to identify the child’s learning strengths and weaknesses. Once the required testing battery has been administered, an IEP will be developed, outlining the child’s learning goals for the upcoming school year. Depending upon the degree of the special needs child’s disability, the IEP may be implemented in a regular classroom or a special education setting. Some public schools have remediation settings designed to accommodate special needs children; others may recommend a special needs school. In the case of inclusion, the child will be placed in a general education classroom setting but will receive aid via a paraprofessional or special education assistant. If necessary and available, the child will be referred to a remediation setting, where most or all subjects will be learned in a smaller class setting via a special education teacher. Often, a number of special education assistants will also be present in a remediation class to aid students during the instructional day. If the student’s needs are greater than the public school can accommodate, the child may be referred to a special needs school.
