Organization and Human Resource for Supporting Integrated Education of Children with Special Educational Needs

Abstract

In the second half of the last century the special needs education’s experiences highlighted the attention to the negative effects of the segregated education, the selection and segregation mechanisms. In accordance with international trends educational initiations were launched in relation to integrated education of children with special educational needs in Hungary. While integrated education has become widely accepted, the normal pedagogy’s demand for special knowledge emerged. It became apparent that the integrated education of children with special educational needs can be optimally achieved only in cooperation with the special schools and teachers.
