Special educational needs and special education are very wide terms. At some stage during their school life, 1 in 5 of all children will need some form of special education. For most children this can be provided in a local primary or secondary school, sometimes called a mainstream school. For children with complex educational needs they may need a special school for some or all of their school life. All children now have a right to go to a mainstream school if that is what you want. The only exception to this right is when a child with special educational needs would have a negative effect on the education of other children in the class.
