  This book provides an overview of the challenges facing the education service in providing for children with special educational needs. It replaces an earlier book published in association with the SEO, Special Education (1986). It takes into account all the legislation of the past 10 years and the implications of the 1988 Education Reform Act. It looks at the background, principles and practical issues facing LEAs in implementing the new Act, LMS and the National Curriculum. It also provides coverage of issues such as integration, assessments, appeals, support services, in-service training and the needs of post-16s, and offers strategies for facing the challenges of the 1990s.
