Special education and general education have a lot in common, and the general laws of general education are also applicable to special education, but special education also has its own special side. Like general education, it not only educates students in morality, intelligence, physique, beauty and labor, but also emphasizes the education of making up for defects and developing advantages, such as teaching blind children to learn Braille and directional walking, training deaf children's listening and language, and educating mentally retarded children's sensory perception and motor ability. Special education pays more attention to early education, because the younger children are, the greater their plasticity is, and they can also protect the residual vision and hearing of disabled children as soon as possible and develop their intelligence and language ability. If you miss the best period, you will often get twice the result with half the effort. If early language training is not carried out for deaf children, it will bring great difficulties to future language development. Compared with general education, special education pays more attention to individualized education and emphasizes teaching students in accordance with their aptitude to meet the special needs of different students. Suzhou education department has put forward higher goals and requirements for special education, and implemented "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude". To achieve good results, special education must be organically combined with social education and family education. Therefore, special education also emphasizes the concept of big education and the integrity and systematicness of education.
