• Meets the unique needs of a child with a disability.
• Adapting what a child learns & how he or she learns it.
• Special curriculum education is not just a, but a process….
that makes it individualized for each child.
• According to KIRK & GALLAGHER (1986): “When youngsters in the same
class room are remarkably different, it is difficult for the teacher to help
them reach their educational potential without some kind of assistance.
The help that the schools devise for children who differ significantly
from the norm is called special education”
• According to YSSELDYKE & ALGOZZINE (1990): “Special education is
the instruction designed for students with special learning needs.
Some of these have difficulty in the regular classrooms; they need
special education to function in school. Others generally do well in
regular classrooms; they need special education to help them master
addition skills to reach their full potential in short. Special education is
evidence of society’s willingness to recognize and respond to the
individual needs of student and the limits of special school
programmers to accommodate these needs”

HISTORY OF SPECIAL
EDUCATIONWe can say history is the description of the person, institution &
societies in terms of their existence from the earliest to the latest.
When we talk about the history of special education, we must have its
description in terms of growth & development of the ways & means of
its delivery, objective sets & the system of schooling. The term special
or exceptional children does not exist in our historical past. The
description related to the history of special education in the text is
covered by the history of the case & provision made by the society &
states for the various types of disabilities found in human beings.
Therefore history of special education is the mesh up of two, one deals
with educational & institutional arrangements first formally established
in the eighteenth century, the other with the people who have present
in the society since the beginnings.
