Phtiaka, Helen
Mediterranean Journal of Educational Studies, v6 n2 p141-67 2001
Presents a case study illustrating the educational turmoil faced by a child with special needs in Cyprus, focusing on the failure of the system in a country that does not provide adequate support for special needs children and their families. The study challenges assumptions about existing partnerships between home and school and notes the unequal power relationship between parents and professionals. (SM)
