This work addresses one of the greatest challenges faced by education in recent years - to adapt teaching practices in order to accommodate children with special needs.

It then studies the implications of these for schools, in terms of classroom practice, professional development and the relationship of the school with its environment. It also looks at the history of the integration of special needs pupils into mainstream schools.
