Abstract | This flip publication, with the text appearing in both English and Maltese, outlines the right of every citizen of the Republic of Malta to receive education and instruction, the parents' right to choose special education for their child, and the State's duty to provide special schools for students needing them. The Special Education Unit of the Maltese Education Department provides the following services: counseling; home services; special schools for students with mild learning disability, severe learning disability, physical disabilities, hearing impairments, emotional disability, visual impairments, and both visual and hearing impairments; and support services in regular schools including peripatetic teachers, kindergarten assistants, and remedial services. Proposals for education and training related to equalization of opportunities for disabled persons are presented. Educational policies are noted, in the following areas: the right to an education in the least restrictive environment, assessment by a multidisciplinary team including the parents, a range of available services, teacher training, resource centers, parent involvement, vocational and adult education opportunities, physical accessibility of educational facilities, and funding. A series of eight graphs presents statistical data related to special education. (JDD) |
