Special Education in Ireland: At the Crossroads.
Shevlin, Michael
Exceptionality Education Canada, v12 n2-3 p125-36 2002
This article reviews special education in Ireland and concludes that despite greater resources in special education as a result of critical reports and legal judgments, Ireland has retained the parallel systems of special and mainstream education and placement of students with disabilities is still principally determined by a categorical approach.
