In the Netherlands* where parents have a funding package, parents from lower SES groups tend to choose special schools for their children with Down Syndrome which means they have worse outcomes, while parents from higher SES choose mainstreaming.<br /><br />*I may have the country wrong - from a seminar a while ago.Katienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5841910768079015534.post-36097518251822503112012-05-15T10:15:51.636+01:002012-05-15T10:15:51.636+01:00Thanks for a great post.

As a teacher, my concern is twofold:<br />Firstly, schools are able to plan more effectively for their students if they know how much they have to spend and how long they will have it. This means it is possible to provide specialist training, employ TAs with specific skills and so on.<br />Secondly - and perhaps cynically - what's to stop a parent from deciding that what Jonny really needs to help his autism isn't appropriate support in school, but a trip to Florida to swim with dolphins?IanHhttp://teachingofscience.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5841910768079015534.post-46589107953714941842012-02-22T11:23:36.624+00:002012-02-22T11:23:36.624+00:00Hello Friends.........

Like Dorothy, I fear the worst - reduced overall funding, fewer children helped, more private providers with no real accountability, and hence more opportunities for opportunists. I also worry about what kinds of difficulties and disabilities will be covered. My own special interest is in maths learning disabilities, and there's almost nothing in the GP about them. The only comment (section 3.35) is that the intervention methods for 5-7 year olds the Every Child Counts programme could be bought by schools instead of being rolled out as part of the general education provisions. Moreover, the intervention has not been evaluated yet, and it's not clear that it will benefit dyscalculics. <br /><br />So the question is what should we do now?Brian Butterworthhttp://www.mathematicalbrain.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5841910768079015534.post-25562220965256690172011-04-13T13:05:57.568+01:002011-04-13T13:05:57.568+01:00I really enjoyed this post.

Had I not been so jaded and cheap, I might have fallen for the programs mentioned. <br /><br />I NEVER thought I would say this, but the least restrictive environment can be a special school, which exists to serve the particular needs of the child. It's "nice" to be around one's non-handicapped peers, but it seems to come at a cost of higher/lower but not appropriate expectations. In America, certain practices are sacrosanct, curriculum being primary. <br /><br />Things may change in time.<br /><br />But you are so correct in assuming business gives a hoot about the child's outcome, only the bottom line. Businessmen are NOT educators, nor shall they ever be.Usethebrains Godgiveyouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05026223483117357541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5841910768079015534.post-67258987909046545082011-04-10T06:51:50.834+01:002011-04-10T06:51:50.834+01:00This tweet from @martinmckee this morning is very ...This tweet from @martinmckee this morning is very pertinent:<br />Powerful warning from schools sector of what could happen if private equity firms move into health delivery in big way http://bit.ly/fga52Adeevybeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15118040887173718391noreply@blogger.com
