- Summary:
-
This publication describes the program at Bishopswood Special School (Oxfordshire, England) which has gone from serving children (ages 2-16) with severe learning difficulties in a special school setting to full integration of all pupils and staff into three mainstream schools. Bishopswood School is described as currently having its own budget, governing body, headteacher, staff, and a pupil roll of 46, but no school building. This report opens with a background discussion of the decision to integrate, reviews the experience of the three partner schools, and outlines the establishment of the new Outreach Service. Additional sections provide information on buildings, curriculum, staffing, finance, and administration. The advantages and concerns of the Bishopswood approach are discussed in the final section, and an historical summary is provided as an appendix. Photographs illustrate the desegregation process.
