We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Reinstate special needs schools, removing inadequate special needs support from mainstream schools. More details
Submitted by RICHARD CRAIK – Deadline to sign up by: 15 August 2007 – Signatures: 399
Support for learning in mainstream schools is inadequate at providing education to children with special needs. Since the government cutbacks(closure of special needs schools) learning support has been placed in the hands of mainstream schools, with support teachers only seeing children for a few hours a week. We petition for special educational needs children to be moved back to seperate schools where their needs will be met on a permanent, fulltime basis.
