I believe that the government should not only increase the funding for all 3 levels of Special Needs Assistance. But also needs to provide more complex training and higher wages to the very specialized union support staff that are instrumental in the not only this student growth, but also allowing the teacher the time and resources to manage and teach the rest of the class. No student should be left behind in the classroom or playground due to special needs. The other obstacle is from what I hear from parents of these gifted children. The lengthy delays in getting an assessment and or specialist to support the findings or dispute them. That has got to be addressed, the longer you leave it, the further that child could fall behind.
