Speaking of Special Ed In Schools, What Have You Seen Work? (discuss.online)

Looking SpaceFox's question for people who have been in special ed, it seems pretty like its a pretty negative experience. So, I'd like to know what Lemmy users have seen work well for people who need extra help in school? What haven't you seen but think would be helpful?

Used to drive them to and from school for some time. No, we do not need or even get any special training. Yes, I did have from learning disabilities, trisom, trauma and those in wheelchairs I need to lift in their seat everything up to walking potatoes that needed to be physically restrained not to hurt themselves or anyone around.

From what I’ve seen is that those who have friends tend to do better, also, if the IQ difference is too much, the dumbest kids will drag down the experience of everyone else, even in small 4 kid 2 teacher groups.
