I have just announced a new inquiry into the provision of education to students with a disability or special needs. Interacting with the education system can be a frustrating and confusing experience for parents of a child with a disability or special needs, as they attempt to ensure that their child gets adequate support to reach their full potential. An area of concern for teachers and parents alike is the adequacy of funding for children with a disability or special needs attending NSW schools. The information on the inquiry click here. Submissions close on Friday 22nd January 2010.
