Abstract

Summary This project was concerned with ways of supporting the ordinary school in the task of meeting special educational needs. It examined three broad strategies: support services provided from outside the school; link arrangements with special schools; and in‐service training. The present paper presents selected findings concerned with each. There has been moderate growth in local authority support services, and developments regarding the new Special Needs Advisory and Support Services are discussed. The nature and extent of links between ordinary schools and special schools are described. Finally, there is a brief report on the early development of the one‐term courses on Special Educational Needs in the Ordinary School which were running in 1984/ 85.
