Abstract
Current policy in relation to special needs prioritises early intervention and inclusive education, at least as ‘good intentions'’ This article argues for a paradigmatic shift away from individualist models of learning and disability. The social context of play is emphasised as the crucial arena for realising such good intentions, as long as it is geared to responding to, and developing, the self-determination, control, and identity of young disabled children becoming disabled adults in a disabling society.
