This book charts the steps which brought about the closure of most of the separate special schools and units in Newham, East London, over a 12-year-period, 1984-96. At the same time Newham's ordinary schools have undergone major changes to improve provision for all pupils. The report describes the London education authority's de-segregation programme to bring disabled children into mainstream schools.
