REALITY AND CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS

A child with a disability is a child who "has difficulties in development and is not able to achieve or maintain a satisfactory level of health and development or whose health and development can significantly worsen without additional support or special services in the field of health care, rehabilitation, education , social welfare or other forms of support. "

CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS

Inclusive education can be viewed as a two-way process, which on the one hand the increase in participation and learning, and on the other, to identify and reduce or eliminate barriers to participation and learning.Obstacles or barriers that make it difficult or impossible inclusive process and the inclusion of children with disabilities in educational institutions and unhindered movement of the city, can be divided into 3 groups.

1. Psychosocial barriersFor children with disabilities are sometimes associated negative attitudes and prejudices that arise as a result of lack of information and ignorance. There are also intolerance, ignorance and social detachment. Usually present misconception is that children with disabilities are always sick, slow, boring and that other children do not like to socialize and learn together with them.Negative attitudes towards children with disabilities are the biggest obstacle to children's access to mainstream education and benefits from it. On them we find all levels: parents, community members, schools and teachers, government officials, and even among the children with disabilities.Consequently, children with disabilities and their parents, often develop low self-esteem, hiding away and shunning social interaction, which can lead directly to their exclusion from education and social life.The best way to change the present negative attitudes is to increase contact with children with disabilities and persons with disabilities, with information and education about their rights, needs and possibilities.

2. Physical barriers

Environmental barriers may prevent or hinder access to buildings and services, cause a feeling of inferiority, confusion or even cause injury. Inability to use public transport, maladjustment of housing conditions, lack of audible signals and tactile paths on our uluc, insufficiently wide sidewalks with high shoulders, lack of ramps and inclined track for free movement of persons in wheelchairs, maladjusted access to information, unadapted premises, only are part of the physical barriers to be removed or adjusted to no longer be.Barriers to access are present in the physical environment due to limited views on issues of disability,

when the needs of children with disabilities and persons with disabilities are not taken into consideration, or once adopted incorrect assumptions about their requirements.All the buildings in which they are stored institutions (health care, cultural, educational ...) should be accessible to everyone, which can best be achieved through the use of inclusive design principles, which is based on respecting the needs that are common to all, and then to adapt them or facilitating designs among other suit specific requirements such as the needs of people with disabilities.

3. Institutional barriers

Institutional barriers illustrate the way in which social institutions contribute to isolation or exclusion from various forms of social life, individuals or groups because of their disability, social deprivation, ethnicity or gender. This type of barrier is rooted in intolerance to difference and the abuse of power in order to create and maintain inequality.In all societies there is a need to raise awareness about the fact that children with disabilities have the same rights and needs as other children. Overcoming the psycho-social, institutional and physical barriers presents an enormous challenge, but it is key to ensuring inclusive education.

But to overcome these barriers requires immediate additional financial assistance to be provided by the local government:Customization and procurement of textbooks and teaching materials (eg. In Braille, pictures, drawings,

photography, computers, custom tatsature, the touch screen - touch screen, adapted mice, special software, timers and clocks, recorders, etc.);The involvement of teaching assistants in education - educational work as needed (during the whole

day or part of a day);Provide training for the use of assistive technology, sign language or other methods of Communication

to;Engagement companion for personal assistance in order to facilitate the functioning of the child and to

communicate with others during the implementation of the upbringing - educational work in the school, during the full-day classes or extended stay, extra-curricular activities, teaching in nature, trips, excursions, vacations and the like.The involvement of a psychologist or a person who knows the child in realizing health careThe right to health care services that are not covered by health insurance and home treatment and
