Special Needs Education in Europe

A thematic publication produced in co-operation with Eurydice, the information network on education in Europe. 

This thematic publication examines current practice across Europe in 5 key areas:

- Inclusive Education Policies and Practices.

- Funding of Special Needs Education.

- Teachers and Special Needs Education.

- Information and Communication Technology in Special Needs Education.

- Early Intervention.

Information has been collected through the provision of national reports per topic, prepared by the European Agency members via questionnaires and, in some cases, practical examples. The document has been edited by the European Agency, with contributions mainly from the Eurydice National Units in those countries not represented in the European Agency. However, contributions and comments from all Eurydice national units were included.
