Description

This scholarly work examines special education within Britain's institutional framework, moving beyond the prevailing ideology of benevolent humanitarianism to explore deeper sociological perspectives. The author investigates the structural relationships that emerge when part of a mass education system develops separately as 'special' rather than integrated with mainstream provision. By introducing sociological analysis, the book widens debate among professionals including teachers, educational psychologists, and medical officers, challenging assumptions about how special education functions within both the education system and wider society. The text traces the origins and development of special education policies and practices, offering critical insights into the professionalisation of special needs provision and its social implications. Essential reading for educators, researchers, and policymakers seeking to understand special education beyond humanitarian rhetoric.

Key Features

Applies sociological perspectives to British special education systems and professional practice in schools.

Examines structural relationships within special education and connections to broader societal patterns.

Analyses the separation of special provision from mainstream mass education as a distinct institutional phenomenon.

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Education series, preserving important historical scholarship.
