Dr. Lopez from University of Minho in Portugal shared this one he just published- so thought to send along- in this case- Portugal terminated special education and replaced it with Full Inclusion- Over the last 40 or so years they have moved from enacting special education to partial inclusion to “full” inclusion- “all mean all”, “all the time,” for “all disability groups” phasing out most of the special education services or reallocating them- and so many of us are following the developments to see how it turns out- as that is the move here in the US as well- it is not the inclusion part- it is the “Full” part that has so many people worried- we are in an age of extremes, even in special education.
