Opis

The questions of values within special education are addressed in this work. The need for this derives from the changes in legislation and practice in the UK and abroad, including the development of inclusive education systems. The values underlying these, and other educational developments, are examined. The book is grounded in real issues faced by practitioners who find themselves confronting choices which challenge their value systems, or those of colleagues, parents of the children themselves.
