Reintegration into Mainstream? 'Gi'e Us Peace!'.
Lloyd, Gwynedd; Padfield, Pauline
British Journal of Special Education, v23 n4 p180-86 Dec 1996
A Scottish study of 615 pupils in 49 alternative day and residential schools found that over a two-year period, only 21 were successfully returned to the mainstream. Reasons for this finding include resistance of mainstream schools to reintegration; lack of financial support; family attitudes; sex differences in student placement; and the presence of social, emotional, and behavioral difficulties.
