The purpose and task of special education is to meet the requirements of society and the educational needs of special children to the greatest extent, and to develop their physical strength, intelligence and personality. Through special education, teaching and training, we can impart certain cultural and scientific knowledge, and cultivate their confidence in life, healthy self-awareness and ability to live, study and work.
Demand can make education have a more positive impact on them. Special education can provide suitable education for children with special needs, let them enjoy the role of education, and enable them to learn the skills to adapt to life and develop better.
Broadly speaking, everyone has his own special needs, but the needs of special children are more obvious. So targeted education can help them develop better. It can also be said that only special education is suitable for special children so that they can develop. Special education is aimed at special children, helping them learn to stand on their own feet and reducing the burden on society.
Implement the goal
The scope of special education is different in different countries or regions. Some countries or regions have put forward the goal of "zero rejection", that is, all disabled children should receive free compulsory education suitable for their needs. All kinds of public schools at all levels shall provide education and related services for disabled children, and shall not refuse their admission for any reason.
Special education in China is mainly for children and adolescents who are blind, deaf, dumb, mentally retarded and have other physical and mental defects. There are schools for the blind and deaf, schools for the mentally retarded or classes for disabled children, classes for mentally retarded children and work-study schools.
China's Constitution, Compulsory Education Law and Regulations on Education for the Disabled all clearly stipulate that "the state guarantees the right of disabled people to receive education" and "compulsory education is implemented for disabled children and adolescents".
